DOes a great job with the student population they have to work with. Many parents don't even know what grade their kid is in. They expect the teachers to work miracles when the parents are all but absent from their lives. Not enough parent volunteers. Fairly low socioeconomic demographic, but many teachers go the extra mile--with little thanks, to fill in the gaps for kids that don't get much support at home.
