A terrific #ScholarReflections by @ecastillophd on expanding how we think about school choice - not just expanding school choice.

@DoughertyJack @ct_ssn @CTViewpoints @trinitycollege @CTMirror Glad the timing worked out for your class, and I look forward to hearing how the discussion goes!

[Elise Castillo @ecastillophd]

As part of @ct_ssn's column in @CTViewpoints, I wrote about the need for CT lawmakers to center Asian American students in school deseg and choice policies.

[CT SSN Chapter @ct_ssn]

Check out the newest #ScholarReflections by @ecastillophd from @trinitycollege on the “persistent invisibility of Asian American students” when lawmakers consider school desegregation efforts—and her thoughts on how to avoid Asian American erasure from CT’s education policy.

[CT Viewpoints @CTViewpoints]

"It’s time for Connecticut’s leaders to ensure that we no longer lose sight of the diversity of Asian American students in the state," writes Elise Castillo, an assistant professor at @trinitycollege.

Highly recommend that all grad students in education enter the @HaveYouHeardPod student research contest! Among other things, this amazing experience introduced me to a new friend and collaborator @mira_debs who reached out after she heard my episode!

High school students and *Make Us Visible NJ* lobbied to have Asian American history taught in schools, and now it’s the law in New Jersey. Only 2 states in the country require Asian American history to be taught. 1 in 3 AAPI children report experiencing hate.

[Jacqueline Rabe Thomas @jacquelinerabe]

A harbinger to the Hartford desegregation agreement reached last week?

That plan also relies on suburban districts leaders voluntarily offering enrollment to city kids in their well funded schools.

As a Filipina American ed policy scholar, I felt compelled to shine a light on the nuanced experiences and perspectives of Asian Americans in the context of K-12 school choice and desegregation. I welcome thoughts and feedback! 4/4

My study points to parents’ contradictory engagement with how Asian Ams are situated within US racial politics & build on research (@spamfriedrice @anthonyocampo @VivianT88 to name a few!) on the invisibility and racial ambiguity of Asian Ams in policy & political discourses. 3/4

Opinion: Sonia Lau, a Trinity College student, went the test-optional route when applying to college, opening many doors for her.

Should all college have test-optional admissions policies? More on it here.
