Excelencia in Education


Excelencia in Education: By the year 2025, nearly one-quarter of the nation’s college-age population will be Latino. But not enough are earning college and university degrees. Accelerating Latino student success now–and for the next 15 years–is vital to our national interest. To ensure the high caliber of tomorrow’s workforce and civic leadership, Excelencia in Education links research, policy, and practice to inform policymakers and institutional leaders and promotes policies and practices that support higher educational achievement for Latino students and all students.
