- Summary:
- "Authentic Cariño: Transformative Schooling for Latinx Youth documents the innovative practices, successes, and struggles of a full-service community high school serving mostly low-income, Latinx youth in an economically depressed California city. Based on four years of qualitative research, this case study examines how educators, families, and community members established and sustained a social justice school that immersed youth in authentic cariño-a holistic blend of familial, intellectual, and critical care. Seeking to nurture students' moral, social, personal, and academic development, the school's robust enactment of authentic cariño yielded engaged learning, civic action, and college-bound graduates ready to be agents of change in their own lives and in their communities"-- Provided by publisher.
