When Jennifer * first learned about Latino in the work (L) program, he felt compelled to join. Working with a public school teacher English as a second language studentEsl, Jennifer had a relationship with a generous student’s group. He saw how he made his daily life made and believed it was worth a part.

“It’s a class that helps. For them to play the game. Parents. “We teach leadership skills that help them to succeed in their other class and in the future.”

The lakeiers operate in 16 kingdoms, including Florida, where Jonifer teaching. But this year, federal authorities warned a major Florida district that continues in the course, throughout the state, the districts of the state began to turn down their own real classes. In South Florida, at the alone county, about 2,800 students are preparing to the district • Cancel the class Up to the next spring.

Jennifer spoke Parents Her school in her school is now being prepared to reduce the relationship with the program. Students like teachers such as teachers will be devastating effects that will make the feeling of leadership skills and the feelings of the community.

A program that actually helped

Jennifer joined love for two years ago and how many students really moved on his middle school. Program Latin has celebrated Latin American cultureIn community services opportunities allowed students to take the network to the network for the network network and did not come to any level for local college camps.

“It was something so good for them to see how much it was for them, which are also other partner and flourishing.

And Jennifer saw results in real time. Old lustful students have broken the little ones. Helping them is making them a mature by spending them one-time once a time. The program built the feelings of the community, but the old students were given the opportunity to log these Volunteer hours for scholarship opportunities. Students were taking more responsibility, decorate leading cultural festivals and school halls.

“I have students to read Jezeel, and I’m in work for Latinos,” she says. “I come out of the shell from the beginning of the year at the beginning of the year,” I have a responsibility and I can do all these cool bolds. ‘

Real effect

As the Middle Schorship is, Jennifer is not a stranger for the reality of bully. The student insults hard work stereotypes and their peers, some were called “returning to their country.” Students rely on him, because I can’t talk to them, and I can’t talk to them, and I don’t talk to them, and I don’t talk to them, and I talk to them, and I talk to them, and I can’t talk to them.

But helped to contact. “They felt proud to be Hispanic. They were, ‘I am in ESL and I am in two languages ​​and I know people.’

For Jennifer, Lia was a place where Latin students can represent. “In this work, where I really were really the same thing I was, and then students were also doing them and see the feeling of the expression now.

After federal pressure, everyone changed this year, after the increase, the fund lost about the cell.

When all changed

Jennifer was right before the school year began. District leaders warned the program – especially tattolating-especially due to threats from the Department of Education. She says it was as awaited as they were giving “all the end all”. That’s what the program was completely cut.

“We know that the current administration said,” she says. “We can see in the news, they are leaving and getting rid of all types of programs Celebrate diversityOr sports area for minority. ”

The teachers were afraid to find out what to do. How they were trying to tell his students, inform their parents and what else comes next? “Our district leaders have also told us, ‘We have no post online about Latino in the work right now,’ she says. “And we were just kind, ‘Okay, that’s the odd.’”

But even without post online, the news is still spread. Jennifer says his tech-Pravvi students found and started coming with questions, he could not answer.

Local programs were worked in her school district. Unfortunately, “she says.” So if they cut the fund, their hands are tied. ”

No one could do anything. Superintendent or district leaders, Jennifer tension was “surprising” and celebrated the program. If you are a federal government, ‘You are either or we have given you money,’ at the end of the day, you can’t really do much. “

Different names, the same issue

Teachers discovered that the lookes will face important changes in their course, and essentially dropped from school, they learn about new change.

In her school, the leaders of the Lein Action was renamed in the name of the temporary solution, which Jennifer says “very target”.

“The hearings done in the United States in the United States, the hearings made in the United States who are looking for immigrants or divine, it would only be targeted,” she says. And again, it brought the issue as before: How are teachers going to describe it?

“Can I tell children, let them know, let them know, it’s bad because it is bad now?” She says. “To come with this clarification, the rest of the professional, and would like them to lift up the same way.”

Students were excited for the Turveus of the College of this year, Mary Cesthes Mian Cesthes Mian Celebrates MansionAnd Community volunteer events – but now, is up to the air. “The children are sad, they are disappointed, they are upset,” she says. “Many of them say, ‘Why we will not fight again? Wrill them and say,” We don’t want to do that. What are we doing?’ And again, we don’t have the option to fight back. We don’t. ”

What is his middle school for

The name of the work is not changing only in the chairperson of the workworkers in Jennifer, but the course is also written again. She says that lil program includes personal legacy, cross-cultural education, and college preparations. “We have until the end of the month is not completely torn,” she is shared.

Like now, the district has decided to replace the new leadership program leaders with the leaders of the new leadership leaders, but they don’t have any class of next year.

When the effects of the students are clear, the teacher also left in a difficult position: Finding new ways to support their students while interpreting the change. “As a teacher, we have students, we are going to our own school. I also teach other issues and ESL,” says Jennifer. “So this problem is pushed up to us, and it’s us that it does not bring this issue when we don’t cause this issue.”

Jennifer says she is still making a loss. “I just got angry and saddened and think before and may be flexible before and may be flexible, what can we do when things are good?” She says. “The fact that it reaches it is also bad. Like, why?”

Back a step

Growing up as a First generation, half Dominican, half prubian Florida’s girl was really with her family from her family with her. Would be invaluated a program like LIFIVE.

“If I was a program in a program, I know that I was looking at Mid school and primary school, I felt very comfortable, because I had not many Hispanic friends.

The confidence and community he realized has seen his students receive their students from LI. “If I am a part of the same class and I was able to know more about myself and my culture and my background, I think I’m more confident and flexible.”

At that time, the school division was felt. She thought she had to learn to fit to make friends. But lil gave the students a chance to connect students and to hug it. “Students, they can meet each other,” They can meet each other, “They can meet each other,” They can meet each other, “They can meet each other,” They can meet each other, “They can meet each other,” They can meet each other, “They can meet each other, they can meet each other, they can meet each other, they can meet each other.

The Liao was more than teaching the leadership, it provided a place to learn about the history of their history and their parents, which are all different countries that will make Latin America. It also presents a unit that taught about students Financial assistanceWhen they reach high school showing that they would focus. She says, “And it’s just that went.” Literally everyone went, “she says.

A national issue

Jennifer does not inform the only teacher Policy change is affecting students. New York City teacher’s global history teacher ALOL *, says that his students have reached the banks of all year. “There is a lot of fear and concerns and school should be a place where students feel safe,” she says.

Fayla’s own notice to be accepted by the commercial development fund. She says, “The power of humanity was a week, the depression of human programs, the lack of humanity (n) was a chance to learn with the new learning and my students and was taken away.”

The loss of its programs especially feel heavy to lose, especially how lowly is lost. But both folas and jenfer admits the important thing that does not speak and away. Eshuba says that communities are “should be alert, speak, don’t normalize what is happening now.” Jennifer echo and shares it is the responsibility of not to address all of this.

One of these is one of these most distressing parts, Jennifer says, that is Teachers can no longer pay attention to teaching-And students can no longer focused on learning. Asking everyone is to understand, and does not pretend every day, no change.

She says, “I see myself in these kids and help them to succeed in life,” she says. “I want to do that no way I can do. And it is really difficult to understand that this opportunity taken from them.”
