Odds against Latino students grow

Latino students are the fastest-growing student population in the state, but a new report says they are also far less likely to have teachers who look like them, be exposed to Advanced Placement classes or score well on standardized tests. The just-released Connecticut SAT results are a case in point. Just 36.4 percent of Latino juniors scored in the passing range on the English Language Arts portion of the test and fewer than 16 percent scored at grade level in math. That compares with more than half of white students who scored at grade level.
