USA fails hispanic students

A White House report published in April states that less than 50% of Latino children are enrolled in pre-school; just 50% earn their high school diploma on time and, those who do are only half as likely as their peers to be prepared for college. Just 13% have a degree.


Latino parents feel that they can do little to help their children: they feel excluded and don't always speak the language.


But in the near future, Latino's will make up the majority of US citizens. They are the taxpayers, innovators and business leaders of tomorrow. If they fail, democracy fails.
