Language Program Aims to Keep Hispanic Students in School – Raleigh, North Carolina

Tagged: , , ,

“Hispanics are the fastest-growing ethnic population in North Carolina. They are also dropping out of school at a high rate.

In Wake County, 17 percent of high school dropouts are Hispanic, but a new English language boot camp aims to reduce that ratio.

“They may not have the support at home to keep them in school. The parents may not know English and probably can’t help their child as much,” student Eduardo Rocha said.”*
