To further develop the initiative, HIP identified five sites to consider for future work — two states (Colorado and North Carolina), two metropolitan areas (Philadelphia and New Orleans), and one region (South Florida). These five locations represent a diverse set of communities with varying level of Latinos student concentration and college readiness. This report provides a snapshot of the current status of education for Latinos at the national level and in the five locations; it also gives an overview of the local education policy landscape, with opportunities and challenges in College-Ready Education and Postsecondary Success strategies for Latino students.application/pdfen-USCreative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 InternationalphilanthropyLatin American studentseducational attainmentcollege readinessReporthttps://www.edexcelencia.org/media/544
