Charter school focusing on Hmong children proposed in Sacramento - Sacramento News - Local and Breaking Sacramento News | Sacramento Bee:

"A group of Sacramento parents, educators and business professionals wants to open a charter school that will focus on teaching Hmong children, who have largely fallen through the cracks at regular public schools.

Hmong students in the Sacramento City Unified School District had the lowest scores – collectively – of all the district's ethnic groups on the English language arts section of standardized tests last year and the year before."
