randall stevenson from at&t talked about a successful partnership with san antonio community colleges train workers for jobs that the company is committed to bringing back from india. i think we all agree that we should look to build on this kind of partnerships and leverage the community college system. we heard from in our infrastructure section the same refrain about the need to train workers effectively. randy weingarten suggested a specific idea, community schools, especially in the wuerl areas, where parents can get training after-hours the same places where their kids are learning -- especially in rural areas. we are exploring that. what was striking is the overlap that existed in a lot of the sessions. when we were in the clean energy session, there was an emphasis on how to get small businesses and small contractors to get certified and to get the financing needed to move forward and take advantage of these clean energy sector opportunities. when we were in the infrastructure section, there was strong emphasis on meeting to plan not just for existing road projects but also ho

latino students were directly affected both by the san antonio independent school district versus rodriguezision in 1973, which held that there is no federal right to equal resources for students in impoverish public school districts and the milligan versus bradley decision in 1974 where the supreme court created a barrier between city and suburban schools for desegregation purposes. since 90% of latinos attend schools in metropolitan areas, these decisions limited legal avenues for latino desegregation. integration of latino students with white students has been declining on a national level ever since the data was first -- were first collected in 1968. during the 1980s, the level of segregation surpassed that of african-american students and it remains that way today. by the 2005-2006 school year, about two of every five latino students across the country attended an intensely racially segregated school. moreover, latino english language learner students attend schools where over 60% of the students are latino. all of these statistics are especially troubling in light of the fact that lat
