Our students are mostly Latino and African American and attend the city's school with the highest percent of students receiving free or reduced lunch. We are our city's most urban school. We live in central CT. My students are naturally curious and are at an age when they still want to learn. Many of the students come from single parent households and many of them are English language learners who need lots of hands on experiences. My students are generally very excited about school because independent learning is encouraged so they are experienced in choosing topics of interest to study and then conducting the research to present orally to the rest of the class. The effort they put into their learning is commendable. They are learning to be critical readers and thinkers who respectfully challenge the status quo.
