The Crisis in Hispanic Education
An alternative: American Hispanic Schools and Business Development Plan
The Drop Outs
Puerto Rican playwright Radamιs Gavι's bilingual musical about Hispanic high-school students is a haunting refrain of the plight Hispanic students face in schools all across the country. Many Hispanic children are not learning to read and write. Almost half do not graduate from high school or are below grade level. The lack of education condemns people to a life of menial jobs and poverty. Thirty-seven percent of Hispanics do not finish high school, compared to 15 percent of the national average. Even among those Hispanics who remain in high school, 34 percent are below grade level.
