The Illuminati controlled puppet in the White Hut is trying to create a docile population for his masters. :)

If the spanish-speaking (or any other) residents are here legally, the folks should be learning English at home. Back in the 1920s and 30s, that's what my mom's family had to do growing up. Now, we're just empowering the parents to not acclimate to US society and laws.

I posted this sometime back. A few years ago I was a volunteer reading tutor at a Middle grade school in Nevada. We were attempting to bring the laggards up to grade level. I correctly expected mostly Spanish kids (90%, the rest were whites with attitudes) but learned that some Spanish kids were illiterate in their own language. What topped it off was when the teachers told me that some kids were lagging because their fathers wouldn't allow them to speak OR READ English at home. "Spanish is your heritage." they were told. The kids wanted to learn, just couldn't.

We still had a pretty good success ratio though and I made a point to have them read aloud books about America.

Unless changes are made, the violations could lead to a loss of federal funding for state education.

They should go for it and stop sending the tax money to the feds after they are cut off, holding out what they need for education and tell the feds to stuff it.

States should never have started taking money from the feds to begin with, they should have stood on their own when it comes to education and other state functions. F*** the feds.

LOL

Utah has already told the FedGov dept of “education” to shove it, their funding and thier rules. The anaylsis showed that 7% of the cost the NCLB act would only be covered by the Feds. Talk about unfunded mandates.

Teachers unions are sure to be up in arms, AZ is in the hurt locker due to liberal spending for too many years.

Alamo indeed.
