Ugh, no where did I say to not have ESOL.  You are misreading what I am saying.  Most kids in these younger groups that are struggling with reading are ESOL (no matter what their race) and if you put all 15-20 of them and 5 non-ESOL kids in the same class, those 5 parents would not be happy no matter what color the other kids are.  [b]That is 15 kids that can not speak English to them.  That is 15 kids the teacher can not truly communicate with.[/b]  They need to be spread out so they do not track the kids, they differentiate.  As the kids get older the 3rd and 5th tests results show that many hispanic and AA kids can not pass the tests.  So by that guess, they would be in the lower groups and then people would pass judgement on the higher groups with Asians and whites and maybe only a few other minority students.

In which elementary schools, after kindergarten, are there 15 kids per grade who speak no English? [/quote]

Is this a joke?  About half of MCPS elementary schools.  Heck there are 15 per grade in some high schools too.  [/quote]

Who speak no English? I'm not talking about ESOL. I'm talking about not speaking any English.[/quote]
