Sheena reviewed Inside Mrs. B.'s Classroom : Courage, Hope, and Learning on Chicago's South Side on + 107 more book reviews
This was a great and inspirational book. I love that Mrs Baldacci quit her higher paying Journalist job to work with low income inner city kids at a school in the south side of Chicago. She encountered many struggles during her teaching internship and I feel alot of it had to do with the crappy administration in the school. This goes to show how some schools and students are left behind just because of where they live. The school was in shambles with no stalls or doors on the majority of bathrooms, and any other issue imaginable because the building was only supposed to be temporary. Mrs Baldacci went above and beyond to try and make her classroom a great and safe place for her students to be and they needed that stability! I think she did an amazing job with what she had to work with and I hope these kids remember her forever!
