[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids who go to school in Spain or some other country that don't speak the local language must do 6 months of intensive language before they enroll in local schools - not expensive expat schools of course. There is nothing wrong with that. [/quote]

This is actually a great idea. Have an intensive 6 month immersion classes in English before coming to regular school.[/quote]

We also need to insist that the parents support this.

Interesting, that some of the immigrant communities do insist their kids learn English.  Some don't.

When you go to vote in Fairfax county, you get a ballot with multiple languages.  That needs to stop.

The parent support is the key. Parents need to insist that their kids learn English to participate fully in public schools. Kids brains are literally wired for language acquisition.

I'm okay with ballots being offered in many languages, for something critical like elections, I'd rather people fully understand what they're voting for in the language that is most comfortable for them. [/quote]
