Charles Cleveland oral history transcript
Title
Charles Cleveland oral history transcript
Description
A transcript of an oral history of Charles Cleveland, Social Studies Teacher at Hillsboro High School, on Hispanics in the Hillsboro schools. Mr. Cleveland has been a soccer coach for over thirty years and has worked with many Hispanic students who had previous experience playing soccer. Cleveland has also worked in the Summer Migrant program teaching social studies. During the interview, he also discussed his time spent working in the International High School at Hillsboro High School with the State Model United Nations program. The Summer Migrant program started in 1980 for out-of-state children who left their schools before end-of-term to work in the fields. The program allowed them to take classes that they were missing, and was also a social outlet. The program was held at Evergreen Middle School and Glencoe High School. Later in the interview, Cleveland recalls a summer spent in Guadalajara and his experiences in a foreign country and not being fluent in the language. As a result, he reiterates the importance of both these programs and the integration of students within the school community.
