Abstract	In an effort to discover relationships between acculturation, achievement, and teacher expectations as sources of alienation of Spanish American students, a sample of 477 6th grade students in 16 schools in Northern New Mexico was studied. The teacher sample found that: (1) no significant relationship existed between composite achievement and alienation; (2) negatively correlated relationships existed between composite achievement, politics, education, and health; (3) a positive correlation appeared between teacher expectation and composite alienation; and (4) no significant relationship existed between teacher expectation and composite acculturation. It was concluded that alienation of the Spanish American student may be largely attributed to inflexible curricula and activities which fail to involve the Spanish American student cognitively as well as affectively.
