Emmanuel Retama Atilano (Manny) went from coming into class and immediately putting his head down and refusing to talk (block 2) to being my #1 participator block 3. I couldn't get him to stop talking lol. He is AMAZING at analyzing literature and really put in a great effort to succeed. Plus he came and visited me to show me his work!

I was so proud of Casanie last block with being in the hospital and having her baby so early. She still logged in and kept up with all her work and was so positive!

I'm so proud of Shavawn's improvement this block. She managed to pass Geometry. She may not be where she needs to be academically, but at least she's not where she used to be. I'm proud of her.

I know Emily struggled in her other classes, but she really developed a lot of confidence in art. She came in constantly saying she couldn't draw, but consistently produced more and better work than most of the class. When she finished a project, she would do it again (and then again, if she had time), improving each time. I think she gained a sense of *how* to be successful, at least in one subject.

Nyjha joined my class late and let's just say she did not seem happy to be there. She kept her head down and did not talk to anybody (including me). However, I could tell she was interested in The Glass Castle and was following along with the study guide. One day, I read a very uncomfortable part of the book and led a class discussion on racism. This was the first time she participated, and from then on was a completely different student. She went home and completed my Welcome Form and My Story assignment, and we began corresponding back and forth. After that, she always came to class with a smile on her face and went above and beyond in her work.

Collin Tice - Collin had to go homebound mid-block for a very serious back surgery. He was still able to earn credit for all of his courses and will be graduating on time!

Pedro Lopez Mares has gone from being silent and failing all classes to  passing both SEI classes and his content classes. He even wrote me a note that said he is more confident with speaking English now. He has been super helpful with translating and helping new students in class as well.
