New Report on Latinas and Education

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share with you a new report by the National Women's Law Center called "Listening to Latinas: Barriers to High School Graduation." The report focuses more on the high school level, but addresses several topics that affect our students at Palomar.

There is a special section with recommendations for educators.

Karen,

Thanks for sharing this. I particularly liked the video clip. It's interesting to note that it's parole officers and co-workers that inspired Lucy while the school system expected so little of her.
