Thank you, Darrell Lum, for pointing out that people think of pidgin as the language of the stupid.  My dad lived his life using "Chinglish" (Chinese accented English) and you could read faces that thought he was stupid.  Actually,he was quite a brilliant man, and some never gave him credit for it becauseof his accent and use of pidgin.  Sad.  But for schools?  Yes, standard English, please.  Most public school kids don't get enough practice, and are intimidated when faced with a well-versed English speaker.  Practice, practice, practice makes perfect.
