Many teachers at the high school didn\u2019t really believe Wildin had a right to his education due to his immigration status. The detainment center didn\u2019t permit the teachers to send him materials to complete his schoolwork. The fight was long and stamina waned. When he did make it back, there was still the looming possibility of deportation back to the gang violence he escaped in Honduras and away from his family, and there was still the trauma behind him of his six months in the Detainment Center, and, of course, the challenges of studying as an ESL student.
