Poverty in America

Unfortunately poverty is only getting worse.  There are far to many children homeless and wondering where their next meal will come from.  As a teacher I will strive to be as involved as possible and well aware of my student's situations at home.  I will make sure my students know they can come to me and trust me with anything they say.  If a student is in a unfortunate living situation I will try to help as much as possible.  Also, by being aware of what the community I am teaching in has to offer, I will be able to suggest options the family may have not been aware of.
