[quote=Anonymous]I’m an elementary teacher. It’s not just an uphill battle. It’s Sisyphean. The poorest kids live in a completely different world than the middle class kids. They arrive in kindergarten already years behind and they never catch up. Violence at home, hunger, frequent moves, lack of medical care, sometimes foster care, sometimes substance abuse. Not to mention those who need to learn English too. And we try to get them to focus enough to learn some facts for a few hours a day.[/quote]
