Kevin Clark, (CLAD, SB1969)

Kevin Clark is the president of the Clark Consulting Group, Inc., a California-based company that specializes in helping schools, districts and individual educators to meet the needs of today’s language minority students. Through program planning, teacher development and learning measurement, Clark Consulting Group, Inc. can help schools and teachers to better educate this growing segment of the school population.

"Teachers today face a different kind of student than even 10 years ago. In many districts students with limited English proficiency are the majority. Even among language minority students, though, there is tremendous diversity in their abilities, prior schooling and literacy development. Over the past 10 years we have trained more than 5,000 teachers nationwide in effective teaching methods and approaches for educating these students. Realizing that schools are systems, we offer learning programs for administrators and school board members as well."
