School choice could help Hispanic students break through the achievement gap

Latino children deserve better. Just look at the numbers. Too many Hispanic students drop out of the K-12 education system each year, more than any other ethnic group in the United States. Add the learning loss suffered as a result of pandemic policies, and it’s clear we’re sitting on a crisis.

The good news, however, is that we can turn things around by expanding school choice programs across the country and growing awareness about education options within the Hispanic community.
