I am just proud of myself on never giving up no matter what anyone has ever told me I prove them all wrong and me coming to school every day and being able to say this is my last year makes me so proud of myself. Neither one of my family members graduated and I’ll be the first of my family and that makes me so happy to be in that spot. No one in my family expected me to graduate still to this day all put me down but I am doing it and I am going to finish and rub in there face. Due to the way I was raised in my family and all the low income just not being able to ever make it to school is one of the main reasons why they all didn’t believe in me. Because they had it like that growing up they all became someone who just didn’t care anymore and didn’t care what they did in their life’s but sit around and do bad things but I never gave up. No matter how hard it has been for me I make it happen it’s not always easy and I can’t always make things happen as I hoped but I am doing my best at what I am doing at this point of my life. One thing that I was always told growing up is I was going to be my mom all over again not do anything with my self becoming pregnant at a young age and not being able to support my family I will have one day. Being the one to do it all alone without a man to

    There are so many students out there in low-income communities who do not know what it is like to have someone who wants to see them succeed, someone who wants to see them achieve regardless of their race or economic status. I seek to join Teach for America for many reasons and three of those reasons are; for one, I want to help make a difference in the lives of students, I want the students that I encounter to know that I care about their education, I want to see them succeed and I want them to know that I have very high expectation of them. Secondly, growing up in a low-income community myself, I can relate to these students.
