Home Gardens Demographics

Home Gardens Demographics        

I want to write about the demographics of Home Gardens because the school is in a unique area of Corona.  In the small unincorporated area of Home Gardens, Home Gardens Academy is the only school. To me, these facts are significant and interesting because they tell me that this is an area of town that needs help both academically, financially and spiritually.
