KUNG FU PARABLE (Or what’s going on with those at-risk kids? They just don’t try! They just don’t study!)

I'm a Learning Disabilities teacher at a public high school. I have worked with "at-risk" kids for the past nine years. I've always thought I had a good understanding of my students, and could empathize with their hardships. However, throughout my own educational training and career, I've had very little academic difficulty. I had to work hard, but, I always did well. I had enough confidence in my ability to learn that I was willing to make the investment.... Then, I started taking kung fu.
