Emilie Rocha: Allowing People associated with gangs opportunities into schools

I’m 14 years old, growing up my father would tell me stories of times of him being school and when he was younger like around my age. He was kicked out of school because of causing to much trouble for the school to handle. He was kicked out during 9th grade, after that he fell into the gang world cause no school wanted him and all the trouble he had caused to schools. Once he became a father to 4 kids and a husband to a lovely hardworking mother, he realized that he needed to be a role model for us and the first step to getting there was to finishing school and graduating. No school would want him since he was in a gang a long time ago and his background wasn’t to good as well. I think that every kid and every parent that hasn’t had the chance to finish school should get the opportunity to do so no matter what they were associated with, what race they are, nor where they come/are from.
