Improving the Achievement of Hispanic Students.
Howe, Christopher K.
Educational Leadership, v51 n8 p42-44 May 1994
Two exploratory studies suggest ways to address Hispanic Americans' education needs. School staff should place value on the students' language and cultures, set high expectations for language-minority students, design staff development to help teachers and counselors serve language-minority students more effectively, and encourage parents to become more involved in their children's education.
