About this product

Product Information

Winner of the 2000 Outstanding Book Award presented by the American Educational Research Association Winner of the 2001 American Educational Studies Association Critics' Choice Award Honorable Mention, 2000 Gustavus Myers Outstanding Book Awards Subtractive Schooling provides a framework for understanding the patterns of immigrant achievement and U.S.-born underachievement frequently noted in the literature and observed by the author in her ethnographic account of regular-track youth attending a comprehensive, virtually all-Mexican, inner-city high school in Houston. Valenzuela argues that schools subtract resources from youth in two major ways: firstly by dismissing their definition of education and secondly, through assimilationist policies and practices that minimize their culture and language. A key consequence is the erosion of students' social capital evident in the absence of academically oriented networks among acculturated, U.S.-born youth.

5 out of 5 stars
by flaquitosmartin...Mar 07, 2007
An excellent ethnographical study on Mexican youth
The writing is smooth, easy and thought provoking. Our class had some great discussions based on what we read. The definitions and explainations of authentic and aesthetic caring in school/teachers are well put. I really enjoyed the fact that there were examples of dialects of students based on the interviews Angela Valenzuela had. I also liked the way she analyzed these youths and formulated her view on U.S. Mexican Youths. I had to read this book for a Chicano Studies class and it has been very beneficial to read to understand a better view of the lives of Mexicans in Seguin high school.
