It is educating our children. This bill jeopardizes our mission. number one. for all providers of primary education to give children a wellrounded education that will prepare them for life as adults. By forcing these children to focus all of their efforts on learning English. these immigrants will fall far behind in math and science. so someone can read but they cannot balance their checkbook. By imposing a national and unitary standard. we automatically assume that every immigrant child in this country will learn English in the exact same way. If we still want this Nation to maintain the goal of giving every child an opportunity. we must have an individualized approach. My school district in Houston has a predominantly Hispanic population.
