New Reports Look at Education for Hispanics in the U.S.

“One important concern among American educators is improving the school performance of Latinos. One organization that carries out research on such issues is the Pew Hispanic Center. On November first, the Pew Hispanic Center released three reports about Hispanics and the United States education system.

In the first study, the organization found great differences among the educational environments of Latinos, blacks and whites. It says Hispanic teenagers are more likely than others to attend public schools with the most students, the most low-income students and the fewest teachers.”
