Before all of this happened for our school, I felt broken, and I think the world felt a little broken too, because a lot of bad things have been happening lately, especially between black people and white people. But all of you gave people a reason to feel a little less broken.

This is a neighborhood that doesn't necessarily expect much from our children, so at Mott Hall Bridges Academy we set our expectations very high. We don't call the children' students,' we call them' scholars.' Our color is purple. Our scholars wear purple, and so do our staff.

Learning stops during the summer for my scholars. We have what is called a' summer slide,' they need a safe place where they can do activities and continue to grow their minds.
