Hispanic growth creates need for education changes – (in the Southeast)

Tagged: ,

“The Southeast’s growing Hispanic population will force schools to focus more attention on Spanish-speaking students as K-12 systems work to meet federal No Child Left Behind act requirements.

According to the Southern Regional Education Board, an education policy think-tank, the number of Hispanic public high school students is expected to continue to grow, particularly at the high school level. The SREB says high school enrollment of Hispanic students in the region will more than double between 2008 and 2022. Florida, Georgia and Texas are expected to see the most growth. Alabama is in the middle tier of Hispanic student population growth, along with Delaware and Virginia.”*
