(Duggan/Simon) September 16, 1991 Draft Three LA Media OPENING REMARKS: HISPANIC MEDIA LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1991 2:00 P.M. It's a pleasure to be with you this afternoon. Before taking your questions, I would like to make a few announcements. Today I am appointing members of the President's Advisory Commission on Educational Excellence for Hispanic Americans. This panel will advise me and Secretary of Education Lamar Alexander on the progress of federal efforts to improve education for Hispanic Americans. The panel will help us implement an executive order I issued last year. We recognize the crisis in education and employment for young Hispanic Americans. At a time when Hispanics are the fastest growing and youngest minority in the United States, their wages and school completion rates are among the lowest. They have the fastest growing poverty rate. Our Hispanic Education initiative reflects our commitment to innovative, effective education -- our America 2000 education strategy. We don't want to throw money at problems with expensive programs that don't work. Our aim is more radical: to inspire a revolution in American education. We want to increase the involvement of parents and families in education, and we're working to give parents more choice in their children's 2 schooling. Nothing does more to promote educational achievement than parents who care. Andres Bande of Chicago will chair the commission. Mr. Bande is a distinguished business and community leader, the chief executive officer of Ameritech Corporation. My fellow Texan Guadalupe Quintanilla, an official at the University of Houston will serve as vice chair. John Florez, now an official of the U.S. Department of Education, will serve as executive director. Now I'll be happy to answer your questions.
