Impact On Education
![]() | T.J. Martinez, Ed.M.'08"For kids [and] their parents who are in cycles of poverty, violence, and even abuse, [we see] as we come to know their stories. This [opportunity] is something that will break that." -- T.J. Martinez, Cristo Rey Jesuit School. |
![]() | Noel Gomez, Ed.M.'06Some have been incarcerated, others are one strike shy of life in prison. College was the last place any of them expected to end up. But it's the one place that Noel Gomez, Ed.M.'06, wants to keep them. |
![]() | Raygine DiAquoiShe was born in Brooklyn, N.Y., and attended public schools until the sixth grade when her parents, wanting her to have every opportunity, sent her to the Hewitt School, a private school for girls on the Upper East Side. |
![]() | Shimon Waronker, Ed.D. CandidateWhen Waronker walked into J.H.S. 022 in the South Bronx, N.Y. to become its seventh principal in two years, he had reason to be worried. Instead, he was determined to take back the school, starting with the gangs. |
