Minorities And Public Education


Statistics show that the number of minorities,in the public school system, is growing at an alarming rate. At the same time, the number of minority teachers are on the decline. It is important, that these students have role-models, that they can understand and communicate with. In your blog, research this problem, to validate your opinion on why this trend is occurring, and what you think can be done to reverse it.

  1. Woodie,
    Why do you think it is that minority teachers are declining? I too think that every child needs a role model or someone they can talk to regardless of their ethnicity. I hope that I am that kind of teacher when I start teaching. Neat post!
