Spanish has been being taught in public schools for decades. Heck it is even taught in private schools.
The Spanish taught in schools is no the same Spanish the illegals speak. It is Castillian, the Spanish of Spain, not of Latin America. The Hispanic kids have as hard a time with it as ghetto kids have with the English taught in schools.

Oh how I wish this were so.....It should be though.
If it’s taught by “wise-latina’s”, I guarantee you it’s some form of New World dialect.
No two countries speak it the same. I love using “vosotros” instead of “nosotros” and throwing everybody for a ride. Most don’t understand it. My wife doesn’t understand half of what I say and she’s Cuban.
