20,000 Students Sue State Of California

April 25, 2013


On behalf of 20,000 students, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) have filed a law suit against the state of California for failing to correctly teach the English language.
The lawsuit is seeking a court order to ensure that students receive the courses they need to learn English, as many have been given low grades and are frequently being held back due to a language barrier.
ACLU attorney Mark Rosenbaum said:
“These kids are not getting the differentiated learning they’re supposed to be getting.

“English learners are falling behind without proper language lessons, even as school districts collect federal funds specifically for that purpose.
“Under state and federal law, schools are required to teach non-English speakers the language, but by its own records, the state isn’t offering English instruction to nearly 20,000 students.”

Do you bother to even read what you post?

What part of “under state and federal law” do you not understand?

Then it’s a comprehension problem.

And the only thing sad is the disregard for the rule of law.

That's not consistent with being able to speak two languages. Many immigrants from south of the border can not only speak 2 languages, they can make correct change in business transactions. They're not stupid. They're unemployed.

 

[ShootSpeeders]

What part of “under state and federal law” do you not understand?

All of it. I don't understand how you can blame schools when a student doesn't learn something. The student may just be stupid or lazy. No way to overcome that.

It's not the speaking, it's the reading of english that they can't get. They probably can't read spanish either. They're stupid and it's hopeless and you can't blame the schools.

"Differentiated Learning".

Another nail in America's Coffin.

The liberal establishment forces American school systems to educate illegal aliens and then the ACLU correctly determines that they aren't learning English. Well, duh. Can liberal judges force California citizens who are taxed to the hilt to shell out more money for special education targeted at illegal aliens? Maybe so.

Wait. I thought of the beefs the right has with illegals, or even legal immigrants, is that they won't learn English.

Now...here we have English being taught to them and you're gonna complain about that too?

Many conservatives are consistent in being inconsistent.

A Mexican American friend was told, by a bigoted teacher, that he was a stupid Mexican. He went on to get a Phd and is a university professor.

I can see that being true in your case - the school having little to work with. However in many cases there is a language barrier that prevents learning.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

It’s just the fact that the ACLU is involved that drives the right BSC; regardless the issue involved.

That underestimation could cost you, my friend. Latinos are survivors. You forget that at your own peril. If you don't believe me, review architecture in Europe, South, Central, and North America. If you think architecture is irrelevant, you are missing the heart and essence of the mathematical, social, and spiritual gift that the Latin Americans are to this world, and what it will cost you personally should you ever forget it.
They're our neighbors, our supporters, and our friends. Equals are scary because they are slow to give up what they learned at home, just like us. How many of our children learn other languages so they can communicate with other people for business, political, or intellectual reasons? Tell me.

Hey stupid. You don't understand the issue. It's ok to teach english to students but you can't sue the school if the student is too stupid or lazy to learn. Most mexicans don't even want to learn english. They hate everything about america except the welfare.

Was the PHD is something hard and important like physics? No - it was ethnic studies or sociology or medieval history or some silly useless verbal crap. Like blacks, hispos can't do technology.

Where is the "illegals" part?

Why is the AMERICAN Civil Liberties Union fighting on behalf on non-americans???
