Book Description
Students of Color and the Achievement Gap is a comprehensive, landmark analysis of an incontrovertible racialized reality in U.S. K-12 public education---the relentless achievement gap between low-socioeconomic students of color and their economically advantaged White counterparts. Award winning author and scholar Richard Valencia provides an authoritative and systemic treatment of the achievement gap, focusing on Black and Latino/Latina students. He examines the societal and educational factors that help to create and maintain the achievement gap by drawing from critical race theory, an asset-based perspective and a systemic inequality approach. By showing how racialized opportunity structures in society and schools ultimately result in racialized patterns of academic achievement in schools, Valencia shows how the various indicators of the achievement gap are actually symptoms of the societal and school quality gaps. Following each of these concerns, Valencia provides a number of reform suggestions that can lead to systemic transformations of K-12 education. Students of Color and the Achievement Gap makes a persuasive and well documented case that school success for students of color, and the empowerment of their parents, can only be fully understood and realized when contextualized within broader political, economic, and cultural frameworks.

Book Description
Valencia presents the mostÊcomprehensive, theory-based analysis to date on how societyÊandÊschools are structurally organized and maintained toÊimpedeÊthe optimal academicÊachievement of low-SES, marginalized K–12 Black and Latino/Latina students—comparedÊto theirÊprivileged WhiteÊcounterparts. TheÊbook interrogates how society contributes to educational inequality as seen in racializedÊpatterns in income, wealth, housing, and health, andÊhow public schools create significantÊobstacles for students ofÊcolor as observed in reduced access toÊopportunities (e.g., little access toÊhigh-status curricula knowledge). ÊValenciaÊoffers suggestions for achievingÊequal education (e.g., implementing fairness of school funding,ÊimprovingÊteacher quality, and providingÊstudents of color access to multicultural education) by disrupting structural racism.ÊConsidering the rapid aging of the WhiteÊpopulation and the sharp decline of WhiteÊyouth—coupledÊwith theÊexplosive growth in people ofÊcolor—this book argues that theÊ“AmericanÊImperative” must be toÊassiduouslyÊmount an effort to provide an excellent education forÊstudents ofÊcolor, who the nation will depend on for a sizable proportion of its work force. Book Features:Examines how society and schools are failing Black and Latino/Latina students, principally Mexican Americans who are by far the largest Latino/Latina group.Uses theoretical frameworks that draw from analysis of structural inequality, critical race theory, anti-deficit thinking narratives, class-by-race covariation, and an asset-based perspective of students of color. Discusses the “American Imperative” and the personal and economic consequences of not investing in students of color.
