out there who bend over backward to address this in any way they can and work hard to provide the best and most equitable education for all of their students, there is only so much we can do with the time, money, and energy we really lack. It should be up to our schools and school districts to bridge these gaps for our students, but if we are being completely transparent, this rarely happens.
The struggles experienced by both educators and students alike are endless, and it would be dishonest of me to say that I think they can all be resolved in the near future. These problems are generations old and deeply systemic and will most likely not be gone by the end of my lifetime. We can have hope, however, that things can begin to slowly change in the not-so-distant future.
