On this week’s episode of the Northeast Newscast we’re at Latinx Education Collaborative, an education nonprofit focused on increasing Latinx representation in K-12 classrooms. Deputy Director Susana Elizarraraz shares her experience growing up in Northeast, teaching at Gladstone Elementary, and deciding to take on a larger role to advocate for and better her community. We discuss Latinx Education Collaborative’s mission, why representation matters in education, the resources available for families and teachers, their Fund the Future campaign, Latinx Educator Awards nominees, and more. Visit latinxedco.org for more info.
