Training Overview
Do more to help immigrant students. Take steps now to help this growing population of learners.
The summer offers an ideal opportunity to update your curriculum, policies, and instructional practices to support the growing immigrant population.
Recently released data from the 2020 census shows that the immigrant share of the U.S. population has grown again. The Census Bureau projects even more expansion of this group over the next 40 years, exceeding 17% in 2060. As more immigrants enter the country and schools, you need to take action to help students from other countries succeed—they are becoming a much larger portion of classroom composition.
The influx of students from all over the world provides an opportunity to engage in rich dialogue on culture, language, tradition, and education. You must provide a foundation to ensure all students are welcomed, included, and given the best education possible.
