Located in the South Bronx, my colleagues and I have successfully attained a 75% graduation rate compared to the local 48%. I have closely associated with all levels of English Language Learners, Students with Learning Disabilities, and a variety of ethnicities and have guided all students towards achieving their highest goal: to graduate highschool with an advanced diploma and be accepted into college.
