[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a huge issue and has gone out of control. Look at this article in Bethesda magazine. It's worth a read: [url]http://www.bethesdamagazine.com/Bethesda-Magazine/November-December-2017/Hope-Lives-Here/ [/url] While this school is in MCPS, make no mistake- this is a reality in a good number of schools throughout the DMV. [/quote] So you hate poor people who live in trailers? I thought it was a lovely story of how one community is supporting those in need. Those are some great teachers. [/quote] Who said that I hated poor people in trailers? Did you read it? Of course principal and staff at the school are clearly amazing; but the fact is, teaching is only PART of their jobs these days. They're busy caring for these kids as if they are their own. If you don't see how that impacts education and our communities, then you are delusional. Send your kid to that school and let me know how much his education his impacted. Of course the fact that the school is over 75% farms and[b] the fact that a good number of the students there are illegal immigrants[/b] impact public education and unfortunately the burden lays on just a few schools. YOu will never see this in the neighborhoods of McLean, Bethesda, Potomac, etc. Is that fair? [/quote] How do you know they are "illegal"? [/quote] You're right. It's just as likely that the non English speaking families living 15 people to an apartment been here for 5 generations. They don't speak a lick of English but you know, we can't prove that they are illegal, you and I, not even to have an Internet discussion. Also[/quote] I dunno. Two families I know who are low-income and Spanish speakers are legal and live with extended family for a variety of reasons. [/quote] Ok, you got me. Parts of FFX looks like South America now - many who recently arrived and who don't speak a lick of English but it's clear they are all 100% legal. Also, I'm not sure why [b]we are a sanctuary city[/b] at all, since everyone is legal... You people crack me up. You are delusional. I do suspect you actually believe in the crap you put forth... [/quote] Fairfax County isn't a sanctuary county/city. ???[/quote]
