Our students know that they are here to get an education, and we aren't going to send them home on a suspension.... After all, they are our students and... their problems are our problems; we don't pass the buck.

“It’s important
to work with
community audiences
because every one...has access
to different people and resources
that you can engage.”

“If we don't
help kids
level their playing field
they may have no options.
Not only does it hurt them, it
hurts the whole
community.”
