The White House Initiative on Educational Excellence for Hispanics is pleased to invite you to participate in: A WEBINAR on Hispanic Teacher Recruitment Wednesday, August 20th, at 2:00-3:10pm EDT This is part of a monthly webinar series, designed to share information and foster peer networking around key education topics of interest to the Hispanic community. The webinars: * Present information about federal investments or initiatives on key topics * Highlight examples of Bright Spots, programs or models that address these key topics in the Hispanic community * Initiate a dialogue among Hispanic community leaders to share promising practices, provide peer advice, and explore collaboration on the key topics With Hispanics composing nearly one-quarter (about 24 percent) of public school students in the nation, only 8 percent of our nation's teachers are Hispanic. This month's webinar will focus on Hispanic Teacher Recruitment, looking at both the state of Latino teacher recruitment and some practices to increase recruitment of Hispanic teachers.
