With a growing population of Latino students and curriculum changes to accommodate them, local schools show how Tucson already is adapting to its booming Latino community.
In Tucson’s two largest districts, Latinos comprise more than half the student body. Fifty-four percent of students in the Tucson Unified School District are Latino, according to the Arizona Department of Education. In the Sunnyside Unified School District, the city’s second-largest school district, Latinos make up 88 percent of the student body.”*
