Hispanic Education Status Report 2015
Skandera, Hanna; Montaño, Matt
New Mexico Public Education Department
The primary purpose of this report is to comply with the statutory requirement that important data regarding Hispanic students is published annually and shared with key stakeholders. The 2014-2015 Hispanic Education Report identifies and incorporates the following data: (1) By school district and by charter school statewide: (a) Hispanic student achievement at all grades (PENDING); (b) attendance for all grades; (c) the graduation rates for Hispanic students (PENDING); (d) the number of Hispanic students in schools meeting School Growth Targets (SGTs) and in schools at each level of school improvement or restructuring (PENDING); and (e) the number and type of bilingual and multicultural programs in each school district and charter school; and (2) By postsecondary educational institution: (f) Hispanic student enrollment; (g) Hispanic student retention; and (h) Hispanic student completion rates. In addition to the statutorily required data listed above, this year's report includes teacher equity data that demonstrates the importance of every student having access to an effective teacher who advances their learning towards the ultimate goal of being college and career ready. The purpose of including equity data in this report is to spark a discussion and movement towards ensuring that Hispanic students have access to effective and highly effective teachers. Incorporated in this report is information about the Hispanic Education Advisory Council's (HEAC's) role in advising the secretary of education through a snapshot of the statutorily required Hispanic Education Act (HEA) 5-Year Strategic Plan. The HEA strategic plan is anchored in the three (3) statutorily required areas of advisement that are key in ensuring academic success for Hispanic students in the state: student success, family engagement, and collaboration. These three focus areas are aligned to the Public Education Department's (PED's) strategic levers. The Hispanic Education Act, 5-Year Strategic Plan is appended. A glossary and a list of acronyms are also provided.
