Twitter chat transcripts: How do we close the Latino learning gap?

November 1, 2011 | Ashley Alvarado and Meghann Farnsworth, California Watch

Last week, California Watch and The Hechinger Report produced two articles focused on the Latino achievement gap in California schools. To continue the conversation – and with an eye toward closing that gap – California Watch invited parents and educators to chat with and ask questions of reporter Sarah Garland and David Valladolid, president of the Parent Institute for Quality Education, via Twitter. Below, you will find some highlights. For more information on Garland's articles as well as our React & Act, go to http://californiawatch.org.
