Students are directly on the campus of Howard university which exposes them to black excellence and allow some them to see what the end goal is.

I loved the fact that my school was on the campus of one of the first HBCU'S, which is Howard University. I loved the sense of community at my school among the students and the teachers that were passionate about their jobs and teaching children. Something that I would change is administration. Every year I attended Howard University Middle School Of Mathematics and Science there was a different principal. i would also change the social studies curriculum to a more Afrocentric type of learning.

We understand that all schools have growing pains, e...
