ABOUT US
The Latino Association of Administrators and Christian Educators in Public Schools (LAACE) is a 501c.(3) non-profit national association of experiential faith centered educators and administrators working in public, private and charter schools across the United States and its territories. The members of LAACE are Christian educators and administrators who have a relentless and uncompromising commitment to equity in education, particularly among the underrepresented Latino student population. We purpose and believe that it is our calling and destiny as faith centered educators to advocate and pursue public policies that address the needs of all students, particularly of all of the subgroups of la familia Latina.
