My students have high character. They attend Pinole Valley High School, a school using a temporary all-portables campus while a new school is being built. My students are classified as high poverty. They live in an inner city area in California that has high rates of everything negative -- crime, mortality, incarceration, teen pregnancy, unemployment, dropout rate, etc. The effect of these challenges, none of which are their fault, on their education is enormous. Despite a talented and dedicated teaching staff, our school has one of the lowest academic levels in the state. Despite it all, they are good kids who deserve much better than they have. They need as much extra help as anyone can give them, and so we who teach there are looking for as many ways to give this extra help as we can.
