District Demographics
I teach Middle School Science at Anna R. Langford Community Academy. This school is located in Chicago, Illinois on the south side of the city in a community named Englewood. Chicago has the 3rd largest school district in the country. This school has a small population of students. There are approximately 225 students in grades Pre-K- 8th grade. Langford School is a Title I school and qualifies for federally funded educational programs. Ninety-nine percent (99%) of our students live below the poverty level. These Title I funds are used to provide academic support to our students. The student population is composed of African American Students. The Englewood neighborhood is presently going through a gentrifying process which has increased our Hispanic population slightly. Our classroom average size is between 20-25 students which usually comprises more females than males. I share my class with another teacher who is there to assist our diverse learning students. Presently, in my class this coming year, there will only be 2 diverse learning students.
