College Gap Found for "English Learners"

Democratic State Senator Alex Padilla held a select committee hearing in Los Angeles to address California's learning gap for the 1 and a half million public school "English Learners." Almost 90 percent of students classified as "English Learners" don't complete courses to get into state universities. Pacifica's Dan Fritz filed this report from the Robert F. Kennedy Community School in Los Angeles.
