KATY ISD BOARD VOTES TO END DUAL LANGUAGE IMMERSION PROGRAM
More than 100 people, both parents and students, came dressed in white and crowded into the board meeting as a last-ditch effort to try and save the Two Way Immersion Program, or TWI for short.

Awesome.

It helps students become bilingual at a very young age. Parents say it's a beneficial program that makes a huge difference in student development and performance.

That's great! I suggest those parents find a for profit school that teaches such a program.

The fact is, most there don't care about the benefits of a bi-lingual education as stated above. Their ambitions are much more culturally motivated.

But it can be useful if you travel more than a few miles from your home.

Bullshit. This pandering to the invaders is sickening.

To become a naturalized Citizen one must demonstrate basic English reading and speaking skills. To vote one must be a Citizen. So, now tell me why we have ballots in any language other than English.

Why can you take the driving test in Spanish. I haven't seen any road signs in Spanish. If you can't read the damn test in english you sure as hell can't read the road signs.

I'll go ahead and post what I really wanted to. Spanish is the language of losers.

None of that relates to what I said. I travel frequently to other countries, many of them being spanish speaking. I helps to know the language. However, I agree with what you said as it pertains to the US.
