Proposition 227 stops them. Our method has been used successfully in the U.S. and worldwide. Today, California schools are forced to use bilingual education despite parental opposition. We allow such combined classes where necessary at the school's discretion, such as in rural areas with few students. This initiative only requires that school instruction be primarily in English.
Teachers can still use some of the child's native language.
Foreign language programs remain completely unaffected. Should save huge amounts of money. Although we maintain per capita spending on English learners, once these children are quickly taught English and moved into regular classes, this extra funding ends. The opposition's only true statement is that children must learn English. The current system fails to do this.
