[quote=Anonymous]I'm 17:52. The two things that made a difference for me were the desegregation of schools (de jure and defacto) and a senior year teacher who discovered I was desperately poor. I was able to go to a good university on partial scholarship (the rest loans) and then full-ride grad school for two degrees. I changed careers 15 years ago and now teach myself. Every year during preservice, my principal makes these paper t-shirts that say "____ is my superpower." I wish everyone's would say "spotting the secretly poor kids". There are countless in DCUMland's best schools. They need our help.[/quote]
