This shows that these schools districts are over budgeted by 50, 41, and 33 % respectively. The best way to put a stop to this social drain is to quit funding it in the first place.
When these school board cry about lack of funding, put your feet down tell these touchy feely teacher's union controlled school boards to quit teaching illegal immigrants for free, at the expense of our children's educations. We pay to sent American children to school, not the children from every other nation.
Fight back with the one tool everyone seems to understand- the dollar.
Hate to burst the bubble, but the fact that absenteeism was up for Latino's by X% does not mean that absenteeism was up by X% of the total. No doubt there are a lot of illegals everywhere.
For example: If there are 30 kids in the class. 6 are Latino. That is 20%. If 3 don't show up, that is 50% absenteeism for Latino students. Total absenteeism is 10%. You also do not know which are legal and which are not.

Excellent advice. Now if the WI GOP will only give us a few credible candidates, we'll get right on that. ;)
