I am a teacher at an elementary school located in the southwest side of Chicago servicing the LatinX community. Many of the families struggle financially and face hardships to even provide their children with basic school supplies. Additionally, all my students are enrolled in the free and reduced lunch program. I have a total of 30 4th grade students, many of whom receive bilingual and special education services. For many of my students, class time with me is the highlight of their day. My students want to learn, they are curious, and they are excited about learning. In turn, I am always excited to help them learn. It is challenging, but I want to give them my best to help them be their best.
