We also had music, theater, art classes and lots of other fun things.
While I still sucked at the subjects I've always sucked at, I felt successful in some of the other opportunities I was given. It really changed the way I thought about school and learning and made a HUGE difference in my life. I wish every child in school had these time of opportunities.

I wish there were still these types of programs available.
