Maestros Para el Pueblo

Purpose

Ultimately, the goal of Maestros Para el Pueblo is to:

Address the lack of representation of Latinx teachers in the local Skagit county community, families, and students.
Face the issue of inequality in educational outcomes due to the inequality of opportunity to be successful. Maestro students bring so much potential and a deep understanding of why these inequalities exist and become a part of the solution. They have become activists, leaders, role models, graduates, and teachers.
As a collective across institutions, develop clear educational pathways to Western Washington University’s Woodring College of Education programs. It humanizes the students’ experience from the initial contact through relationship base and holistic achievement approach, which includes understanding a well-rounded student, encouraging student involvement, and uplifting student voice.
