My school is in the middle of one of the lowest income areas in the San Fernando Valley. Most come to school wearing the same clothes they had on the day before. The fact that these hard working immigrant parents are trying to give their children the experience of early childhood education is extremely commendable. Most of my parents work three or four jobs to get food on the table. Unfortunately simple family experiences that seem normal for a four year old to have outside of the classroom is not their reality. They don't get to the zoo, museums, or aquariums as much as I would love for them to be able to go. They are sweet kids and soak up any lesson I give them like little sponges. They are enjoying preschool to the fullest and progressing rapidly.
