This book is an endeavor to render visible certain Latina issues by exploring the lives of three Latina educators who have risen through the ranks of the Connecticut secondary public school system into positions of leadership. The focus of the project is to hear the story of their life histories growing up in the United States and participating in the American education system. The book explores the complex interactions within their shared experiences of growing up in poor working class backgrounds, being women in a man's world, and coming from marginalized racial/ethnic backgrounds. The study will examine their commitment to seek out careers in education and examine their educational philosophies, and the strategies they developed to overcome these multiple structures of oppression. Little has been written on the subject area of Latina educators in secondary public school education. This book supplements the sparse literature on the experiences of Latina educators in secondary schools in the discourses on educational equity and social justice for Latinas.
