[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is the reality - it costs more on a per child basis to educate a ESOL low income minority child than a Special Needs student. Unfortunately MCPS budget has been overwhelmed by the massive number of ESOL students. There is only so much money that MCPS has and they are forced to use the educational budget on ESOL. [/quote] Why do you assume all ELLs are low income minorities? My W cluster school has a high ESOL pop. Lots of Russians, various Eastern Europeans, Portuguese, and Israelis --all white. Even our non-white ELLs are mostly not Latino and certainly not low income. Instead we have French, Arabic, Urdu, Korean, and Japanese, speaking children of doctors, lawyers, and business people from Africa, the Middle East, and Asia.[/quote]
