Our students are majority Latinx and Black high school students attending public high school in Denver, Colorado. Students are motivated and dedicated to preparing for the realities of university and the workforce through high-level education and college-credit opportunities.
My Project
We will kick-start the school year this August by reading "The Hate You Give" together as a class in our 11th grade ELA classroom. Students will also have the opportunity to take their hardcover books home to read afterschool and on the weekends.
It is both a statement that Black lives matter and the story of a 16-year-old girl, Starr Carter, with her own life and problems.
The Hate U Give is inspired by THUG LIFE, Tupac Shakur’s famous acronym that stood for “The Hate U Give Little Infants F***ks Everybody.”
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
