If indeed you have achieved the level you claim, I will venture to say that it is primarily do to your parents support, encouragement and economics. I can only conclude that you have absolutely no empathy for the minority child that comes to school poorly dressed, underfeed and without motivation because the child is surrounded by poverty and all of it deleterious affects. AS I previously challenged you, I again ask you to provide any example of a failing school in a wealthy district.
