The major question for our California schools: Are we doing enough to support California’s Latino students – over three million in K12 and nearly one million in higher education? Find out in The Majority Report from Ed Trust West.
The Education Trust–West’s The Majority Report: Supporting the Educational Success of Latino Students in California provides an extensive look at how the state’s largest ethnic group is faring at every level of California’s education system. The report finds that while the over 3 million Latino students in K-12 schools are the majority of California’s 6.2 million K-12 population, and nearly 1 million Latino students are in California’s public colleges and universities, these students continue to face troubling inequities from early learning through higher education. The study also highlights bright spots throughout the state where promising practices are helping Latino students advance academically, dispelling the myth that these gaps cannot be closed, and reiterating the need for more action and urgency from state leaders. The Majority Report has been featured in state and national news outlets including The New York Times, NBC Bay Area, EdSource, L.A. School Report, and Voice of San Diego.
