Description: "Issues in Latino Education is Based on the realities of high school life from the perspectives of young Latinos'. Educators and social researchers spend considerable time and effort studying issues in multicultural/bilingual education, but have few opportunities to experience the subjective realities of the students themselves.

This text compares these realities to a variety of viewpoints offered by high school teachers on matters of community, learning, race, culture, and school politics."--BOOK JACKET.
