Document Number: 7771 Latino Language Minority Students in Indiana: Trends, Conditions, and Challenges - This Special Report surveys existing conditions for Latino language minority students in Indiana’s schools and identifies the most significant problems and challenges for improving their learning. The report opens with an overview of recent demographic shifts in Indiana’s K-12 student population, and makes an important distinction between Indiana’s long-standing and newcomer Latino populations; the latter account for the dramatic increase in the language minority population.(Bradley Levinson, Katie Bucher, Lauren Harvey, Rebecca Martínez, Becky Pérez, Russell Skiba, Bryn Harris, Peter Cowan and Choong-Geun Chung, Center for Evaluation and Education Policy, August 2007)...
