Just out of curiosity, why did you say "black students"? Would you have said white students if they had been Caucasian? Does this make the grandfather special because the students are black? There are just as many disadvantaged white students as there are hispanic, black, asian or whatever.
I just get a little bristly when someone always has to point out the black person.
I just think you could have left the "black" out of your sentence. JMHO
