Abstract	Raising and educating healthy young boys is an area of increasing concern among early childhood educators, child development experts, and parents. A growing body of research has raised questions about young boys' vulnerability on a number of fronts: social/emotional development, expulsion from preschool, referral to special education, and academic achievement, particularly in terms of literacy. It turns out that on all measures African American and Latino boys are especially at risk. In this article, the authors discuss ways to address boys' need in the classroom. A positive and pro-active effort can lead to a more successful school experience for all boys, especially for African American and Latino boys. (ERIC).
