Follow the $$$$$

And I'll bet those students insist upon receiving thier education in Spanish and more than likely trash the US every chance they get.

Reimbursement fraud like this is common across the country.

It's far more widespread than anyone knows about. I see it in my area. Some of it is very carefully hidden, to the point that even school board members don't detect it until their noses are rubbed in it.

It's a vast tax on all taxpayers, local and state and federal. And one student can easily be counted by more than one district too, a situation very different from, for instance, other district reimbusements/subsidy for special education.

Gee, I wonder who is paying that $5,400 per student.

Sounds like a good project for the churches in the US that are always going to Mexico to build a church. Why not build some schools instead & direct funds to support the school w/ staff & materials?

"The district counters that they have very stringent residency rules and require students to show proof of residency before being enrolled. But the district admits it receives $5,400 each year from the state for each student enrolled, which some parents contend is the real issue."

Follow the $$$ is right . . .

Alien Nation - Mexican Hypocrisy, Corruption, and Welfare Fraud

[McGavin999]

Don't you ever wonder how much of California's budget problems would be relieved if they enforced the laws on things like this? If the school can't be bothered to enforce the regulations, perhaps the parents should get together to monitor the situation and have the state deduct payments for the number of students who are crossing the borders. The school administrators should be terminated.

I work with a gal who jumped the border to go to Amerian school in 1993 in TX.

Of course she is legal now, but she speaks no Spanish at all. There are exceptions to every rule.

This is the result of centralization. The more money and power you put into a poltical groups' hands the more corruption you get.

[zerosix]

These students are just getting the education that ordinary American students don't want, don't you know.
