a. Summarize the article
The article was about how green dot public schools have helped many students both in their education and life. The article explains how green dot also brings in lots of families together to be involved in their child's education. For example, they helped some students who were in a gang like Delbert and his friends. But when they got a letter from the mail saying, that they were accepted, their mother said that they would make lots of friends but to stay away from thugs. They then put their mind in school. But one after noon, Denver was shot and killed by a gang of members in a park. Basically, green dot helps you stay advance, and get into good colleges!

I can continue getting good grades and score high on exams. I have learned that nothing is impossible.
