[quote=Anonymous]The percentage of English language learners in New York State is over 10% and growing. In Mississippi it’s 3%. The “declining performance” in public schools is due to increased immigration, period. I work at a school with high numbers of language learners and this accounts for nearly all of our students below grade level. We are tossing kids into the system at age 5 with little English and little background in school and then somehow expecting it to even out.[/quote]
