Many of my students are economically disadvantaged and as such, affording additional books and/or supplies is not always something that they can do. The school is suffering as all other public schools in California are. With severe budget limitations, it has become necessary to prioritize our funds to meet the most important needs (providing books, lab materials, etc.) of our students. My students want to learn and would love opportunities to expand on their knowledge. In many cases, the ones who struggle have problems not because of a lack of desire, but they just can't connect with the material that they are getting in class. Any chances to connect with them on their own level, will significantly improve performance in the classroom, and in their future education.
