拉丁裔学生现在占美国公立学校学生的四分之一，并且是非传统定居地区快速增长的人口。然而，在教育成就和成就方面持续存在的种族和民族差异引起了严重关注，因为高中毕业和高等教育对于在21世纪的知识经济中取得成功越来越必要。这篇文章讨论了全国人口结构的重大转变以及由此带来的紧迫的教育挑战。
Latino students now make up 1 in 4 public school students in the United States and are a rapidly growing population in nontraditional settlement areas. Yet persistent racial and ethnic disparities in educational achievement and attainment are cause for grave concern, as high school graduation and postsecondary education are increasingly necessary for success in a 21st-century knowledge economy. This essay discusses a major shift in demographics across the nation and the resulting urgent educational challenges.
