When All Hope is Gone, Trust Then Believe: “At Risk” or “At Potential ?

The Cards of Life, when all hope is gone; trust then believe forces educators to view students differently. The notion that we can’t teach students until we truly begin to know them and they begin to trust us is challenged. The fact that our actions have to align with our words and meaningful conversations and relationships must be established in the classroom. At Risk or At Potential? Every school across the nation have students that struggle, academically, socially or behaviorally. There are a variety of reasons as to why? We can no longer ignore these students and pad the numbers to reflect a great school if all students are not being successful. As administrators, teachers, staff and community support members become involved, it has been clear that the child labeled AT RISK could be viewed as a child AT POTENTIAL. If we looked at these students with a positive tag rather than a negative one, it is highly likely that we would have a different outlook and expectations for their futures
