I teach 6th Grade Science and Social Studies students. I have them in a smaller group which provides the ideal setting for these in depth explorations of great literature. The district in which I teach instructs a diverse group of 6,748 students who live within a low wealth, high needs community in NY. Ninety-two percent are minorities with an overall composition of 8% White, 37% Black, 51% Hispanic and 4% other. One thousand six hundred and thirty-four students are limited English proficient. Sixty eight percent qualify for free or reduce lunch status. We appreciate any opportunity to enrich their classroom experience.
