 What does a school bell bring to mind? The day's end? Or the end of school entirely? As in, kids dropping out? At Communities in Schools, we're helping at-risk students whose ability to show up for school is jeopardized by hardships. They've always had my back. They've always done anything to help me. Anytime I needed support, they were there. We work in schools to help kids stay in school. Communities in Schools never gave up on me. They told me I can do it, and I did it.
