[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They might be intelligent, but they are attending school in the United States, where English is read, written and spoken in school. They should be able to do their school work in English. If they wanted to exhibit their intelligence in their native language, they should have stayed in their home country. So no, it is highly unlikely that an English language learner can do the work required by test-in magnet programs. If they can, they are by definition not an English language learner.[/quote] Thus speaks a Nativist. We have no Official language in the US. Yes, English is the [i]de facto [/i]one, but there's a reason MCPS produces stuff in many languages.[/quote] Our conversation is about MCPS magnet programs. They are offered in English. See the many comments above about why the conversation turned to language.[/quote]
