NYC schools struggle to cope with influx of 5,500 migrant kids
NY Post ^ | October 11, 2022 | By Bernadette Hogan, Kyle Schnitzer, et al

A Manhattan public school with just one certified bilingual teacher is reeling under the weight of a sudden influx of migrant students who don’t speak any English, The Post has learned.

“We’re overwhelmed,” one frustrated teacher at PS 33 Chelsea Prep said Tuesday.

“We’ve all got migrant students in our classrooms. The teachers don’t speak Spanish. There’s no resources helping us out right now — it’s a very challenging situation.”

One outraged mom said migrant kids — easily identified by lime green ID tags that hang from their necks — have swelled the size of her daughter’s class from 15 to 20 kids.

“She’s in the third grade. Her teacher is giving her lower-level work due to the immigrants. They’re making the curriculum easier,” said Maria, a 29-year-old fashion designer.

“The work is too easy for my daughter. There’s first-grade, second-grade and third-grade levels in her class. It’s ridiculous.”

The burden has some furious parents preparing to pull their kids out and send them elsewhere.

The alarming situation offers an example of how the flood of migrants to the Big Apple — now nearly 19,000 strong, with no sign of stopping — is straining the city’s ability to provide them with housing, education and social services.

NYC schools have been totally worthless for years, so what’s the problem?

So now that DemocRats are having to deal with ILLEGAL “immigrants”, it’s an emergency. Well played Govs DeSantis, Abbot, and Ducey.

“easily identified by lime green ID tags that hang from their necks”

The Nazis made the Jews wear a badge. Maybe, Antifa and BLM need to protest/riot in Manhattan where the real Nazis live.

Agree re your post 100%.

Also, from the article: "...One outraged mom...."

I wonder, what political party does mom endorse? Given their location, I'm guessing it's a 97% probability she votes for the candidates who created this mess. She has only herself to blame. Like, when a liberal on a tight budget with kids to support goes to the grocery. And the liberal is paying $6 for a carton of 18 eggs when, 3 years ago they were $1.59.

Yeah, elections have consequences.

Only 5500?

Let’s try half a million. That is what Texas is facing.

Leftists love the IDEA of uncontrolled illegal immigration, they just don’t like the reality when the illegal immigrants invade THEIR schools and THEIR ultra rich enclaves.

To quote Oscar Wilde, it would take a heart of stone not to laugh.

Isn’t this great?

These buttwipes have been voting Rat for the last half century who then go to DC to tell us in The West that we gotta bend over for Mexico.

Now it hits them, and they’re in shock. Oh Woe is us!

Send all of Mexico and South America to Noo Yawk. Maybe we can get some relief from this 50 year long Immivasion, let all the preening virtue signallers back there get a taste of what they helped inflict on us.

There should be more, in fact, all of them.

It should have been border state policy, long ago, to send the Fed’s failures to locations that want them.
