[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hebrew isn't a dead language. There is a whole country of people with substantial business interests, including biotech and pharma. But it's pretty small country and not a lot of people are going to have frequent dealings with it. So, for those who want this, Sela is a good idea. [/quote] I’ve never been to Israel and I’m not Jewish, but there are any Israelis in this area. In my everyday life, I hear Hebrew spoken more often than Greek, Italian, or Dutch. [/quote] Boy there are some dumb attempted defenses of this program in this thread. So someone heard some people in their neighborhood speaking Hebrew so therefore it makes sense to educate some inner city kids in an obscure language rather than one that would enable them to get jobs and better compete in the world? I had an Eritrean Uber driver last week and I bet there are as many Eritreans in this area as Israelis - is that a compelling argument for an immersion Eritrean charter school?[/quote] Boy there is some racist BS in your post. Spare us your whitesplaining. Actually, an Amharic/Tigrit immersion program would be fantastic. Great idea. [/quote]
