The speaker found a statement interesting about the impact of migration on education. They did some research and found that in 2002, there were 9.7 million school-age students from immigrant families in the US. They focused on immigrants in Indiana and found that the estimated Hispanic-Latino population in the state was 242,610,000 people in 2002. This interview shares the first-hand experience of someone who migrated to a new country at a young age. The podcast aims to give people a platform to share their stories. The speaker thanks Priscilla for being interviewed and hopes the audience enjoyed the episode. This statement in particular was interesting to me. I had been an ESL student growing up, and I would not have strived without it. I did a bit of research regarding the impact of migrating students on education. According to a report that speaks on the downside of immigration, states that in 2002, there were 9.7 million school-age students from immigrant families in the United States. I do not say all these 9.7 million were migrants from Mexico, but we know that they played a big part. I decided to dig deeper and find information on immigrants in Indiana, the same state Priscilla lived when she came here. A report briefed by the Indiana Commissions on Hispanic-Latino Affairs stated the estimated Hispanic-Latino population in Indiana to be 242,610,000 people on July 1, 2002. In this interview, we can hear about someone's first-hand experience of migrating to a new country at a young age. All research conducted was looked at based on Priscilla's state and the year she migrated here. This podcast helps share and learn people's stories to share their voices. Thank you, Priscilla, for being here, and thank you for letting me interview you. I hope you enjoyed this week's episode.
