[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maryland has a rapidly growing illegal alien population of about 250,000 persons, more than quadrupling since 2000. Between 2000 and 2008, the state’s foreign-born population has grown by 34.6 percent while it’s native-born population increased by 3.3 percent. Public school enrollment of students who require special instruction in English has soared even more, rising by 93.5 percent from 2000 to 2008 while overall enrollment of native-born declined slightly.[/quote] Is this really true? That's a harsh statistic for the schools. 93% increase in ESOL (is that what it means) is a huge financial burden. [/quote]
