Than Anti-Bilingual Parents, teachers and local boards would lose control and choices in how immigrants' children are taught English. It is much more than that. The end result will be increased educational costs to correct its failures, as well as legal costs for the damage to the children it pretends to help.
Immigrant children do learn English.
The Unz measure fraudulently appeals to the immigrant hunger for English by depicting existing education programs as anti-English. Look at the distorted media accounts of polls interpreting strong support for his proposal in the Latino community as evidence of Latino hostility toward bilingual education. It is a false choice. Parents would have to petition for alternative instruction, and if fewer than 20 children per grade level were found eligible for that waiver, their only other choice would be to transfer to another school. Their waivers would then require a school superintendent's approval and review by the local and state boards of education.
