Ms. Gruwell is fighting to have the freedom writers as seniors.
Ms. G and Don Parris created a nonprofit organization called the Tolerance Education Foundation to help the college bound Freedom writers to pay for college.
Ms. G’s primary focus is this year is to have the freedom writer’s focus on college and their futures.
Many of the Freedom Writers don’t even know about the SAT’s and what it takes to get into college.
All of the Freedom writer’s are feeling the weight of financial burden.
Were there any scholarships available to them?
Did the school give any guidance to their students about college?
Did the segregate the help?
How could all of this be caused by busing?
elicit-to draw or bring out or forth; educe; evoke
chagrin- acute vexation or embarrassment
banal- commonplace; trivial
1. During the beginning of their senior year the freedom writers are falling on hard days with college applications and finical burdens.
