FAST FACT: 112 languages used in Los Angeles schools
“A Plan B alternative to the governor and Legislative Analyst school budget proposals is in order. A major cost factor in the conduct of school operations relates to the vast number of children of illegal immigrants in our classroom and the special-training dictates for many of those students being taught in their native language — some 82 languages in San Diego County, 112 languages in Los Angeles County”.
“The state must insist that the federal government deport the illegal immigrants and their noncitizen student children — as required by federal immigration laws. That would significantly reduce the need for facility expansion, the teacher-to-student ratio would improve and the cost for teaching in foreign languages would be virtually eliminated. More important, the education of American citizens would be enhanced”.
