‘You Guys Are Bilingual Aren’T You?’ Latinx Educational Leadership Pathways In The New Latinx Diaspora, Katherine Rodela, Claudia Rodriguez-Mojica, Alison Cochrun

Teacher Education

Existing research suggests that Latinx educational leaders in the U.S. positively impact Latinx student outcomes and home–school relationships.
