As a result of multiple unfavorable circumstances, public schools
have been unable to effectively educate America's most
disadvantaged student population-Latinos. In this book, author
Leonard Valverde contends that it is imperative to reinvent schools
in order to provide a viable education for these students.
Improving Schools for Latinos starts with the past, points out the
present, and speaks to the future. It exposes the negative mental
models and practices that must be discarded and proposes what
favorable elements need to be put into place. Features: * An
outline of what future Latino schools must look like * A focus on
organizing, leading, and governing schools to create equitable
relationships and democratic institutions * A comprehensive view
and understanding about school and classrooms * Helpful resources
for program assistance, community-based organizations, funding
sources, and more This book will be of interest to all educators
who want to create a bright future for Latino students, their
families, and their communities.
