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.
I'll take a guess and say all of them, and cut the budget anyways. Teachers can take a pay cut, or better yet, teach kids reading, writing, and arithmetic instead of gay sexual experiences, and ensure every child enrolled is in America legally. Better yet, get rid of the public school system, school taxes completely.
