Lesson Overview

31.18 – Being Homeless and Still Expected to Succeed: Trying to meet school expectations while living in unstable housing feels impossible some days. You juggle exhaustion, hunger, and uncertainty while others worry about test scores. Yet surviving these challenges already proves your strength. Schools are legally required to support homeless students through transportation, meals, and resources—use those rights confidently. Teachers can help if they understand your reality, so tell someone you trust what’s happening. Focus on one manageable goal per day to reduce overwhelm. Self-compassion is your anchor; treat rest and nutrition as survival tools, not luxuries. You’re building a kind of determination that can’t be taught in any classroom. Success for you means persistence, not perfection. When the world underestimates you, resilience becomes your quiet rebellion.
