I really enjoyed reading the article titled "Tutoring brings relief to Montgomery County’s homeless children" from The Washington Post. According to the article, Montgomery County Public Schools pays teachers to go and tutor homeless students twice a week. I think this is such a great service provided by the county. Homeless students have so many extra worries than other students, so the normalcey provided by this service, as well as the relationship that grows is so important. The teachers who are performing this are really making a difference - I wish I could be that influential (and motivated!).
