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 status quo of a one-size-fits-all education system might work for some students, but it is never going to work forstudents. This is especially true for Hispanic children, who have fallen behind their peers to an alarming degree. Latino drop-out rates in the K-12 system, for example, are 65% higher than white students and nearly 40% higher than black students.
The solution is right in front of us: school choice. Offering Hispanic families a variety of educational options, from charter schools, to private schools, to homeschooling pods, and giving them the financial freedom to choose the option that works best for them is the only way to ensure Hispanic children have equal access to a quality education.
One of the easiest ways to bridge this gap is to expand access to school choice information in the Spanish language.
