My assignment is to work at a school for "at risk" students. This just means the students are at risk for not graduating. Classic City is a wonderful opportunity for kids in Athens that might not graduate from a regular school, to come and hopefully get the push they need to succeed. I believe Classic City can take up to 150 students. They also have a day care for students that have children of their own. It seems like they are truly doing everything they can to help these kids break the cycle they have found themselves in.
I will be assigned a student who needs extra help in the classroom. For an hour or so once a week, I will go in , and help the students with their current assignments. We are there to tutor and mentor the students and to help them reach their goals in any way we can. I hope that I can do my best to help and make a difference in my student's life. I know I will only be there for the semester, but hopefully I can help in some small way.
