Rhode Island's future social and economic health requires a thriving Hispanic population. Along the P-20 education pipeline, education stakeholders should work to reduce systemic barriers and increase opportunities for Hispanic students to excel in STEM fields. With higher median earnings and lower unemployment, STEM careers have the potential to provide economic security to families. Unfortunately, Rhode Island's public schools have failed to prepare many of the state's Hispanic students for postsecondary success in STEM. This report draws on multiple data sources, including a review of empirical studies, policy documents, and national and local data on academic performance to address the following questions: 1) What barriers and opportunities exist to Rhode Island's Hispanic students' persistence in STEM fields? 2) What promising practices might equip Rhode Island's Hispanic- Serving Institutions (HSIs) to support Hispanic students in STEM along the P-20 pipeline? Financial investments, hiring and training culturally competent educators, and supportive programs and policies for Hispanic students can increase the chances that Hispanic students will complete a postsecondary credential in a STEM field.
