[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do the Spanish-speaking kids and the English-speaking kids enjoy interacting/learning/playing together? Yes, but language is a false distinction. There are very few children with no English at all. English is the language of the playground and any time outside of Spanish classes. The school is very diverse in terms of nationality and ethnicity. ([b]Unlike Arizona, you can't tell who is Hispanic or legal by looking at them.[/b]   ) Many families are already bilingual or mutli-cultural and don't need much language support. Most parents are very friendly and patient with each other when it comes to language. Children are often good translators for arranging playdates.

Wow.  That's politically correct now isn't it?  Wow, just wow.  That's one of the worst things I've seen written on DCUM and that says a lot. So I guess my girlfriend in Phoenix that is brown looking and native American but looks Hispanic is presumed to be illegal because she lives near the boarder?  So if she moved to DC would she be looked at as legal?[/quote]
