Our school is a Title I school with 100% of our student body receiving free or reduced lunch. We are continually working toward improving the academic and practical skills of our students. My students are curious about the world outside of the neighborhoods that they live in and have big goals. They are hard-working and take advantage of opportunities to learn new things and take steps toward their goals, as evidenced by their participation in the extracurricular activities offered at our school. I couldn't be prouder of the dedication shown by the majority of them to their own personal improvement and education.
