I love this article because it brings attention to something I think gets overlooked way more frequently than it should. Students who don't have a place to call home and/or are living on the streets can easily get overlooked in schools. This specific person tells about how her and her little sister were never approached about needs or appearance of the two of them when they were living on the streets and always existing in an abusive environment. No one ever asked why they were always afraid to "call home", or would flinch and hunch down if someone became angry. She then goes on to give advice for teachers and schools if they ever think they may know some of these students. She reminds them to offer resources, extracurricular activites, etc. Then she gives advice to the students themselves; stay in school, education will be your biggest secret weapon, and focus on what you can control...and so much more. It's such a relevant topic, great article!http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/none-of-my-teachers-knew-i-was-homeless-they-should_us_581244e7e4b08301d33e06b5
