And they wonder why people think there's something wrong with the system.
And what the heck? Automatically assume they speak Spanish? Um, no offense, but that's bloody stupid!
It's because of the demographics of the school.
When we first moved to this neighborhood, the ration was 50% Gringo, 40% Hispanic, 10% Other.
Today, there was not ONE Gringo/Black/Asian in the whole place. And I'm not kidding. The only language I heard the parents speaking was Spanish.
I'm all for my kids learning a 2nd language, but it shouldn't be mandatory!
