At Least 30,000 More Migrants Get U.S. Classroom Seats

American kids and teenagers will be sharing their already-crowded classrooms with tens of thousands of ill-educated Central American migrants this fall, because President Obama is distributing perhaps 100,000 Central American migrants across the country.

The Central American student “have very, very limited amounts of education [and] in some cases, they cannot count to 10,” said Caroline Woodason, assistant director for student support at the public schools in Dalton, Ga. “They can’t turn on a computer. They’ve never even seen a computer,” she told the Dalton Daily Citizen.

In Fairfax, Va., “teachers [are] dealing with children not just learning English but years below expected grade/achievement level,” education specialist Robin Hamby, told The Washington Post. In early 2014, her district already had 5,192 Central American students, up 22 percent since 2011.

In Lynn, Mass., the foreign youths “are not literate in any language,” said Catherine Latham, the superintendent of schools. “The school system is overwhelmed, our health department is overwhelmed,” she told Fox News in Boston.

The migrants cross the border illegally, so they’re not immigrants. They’re foreign students, and they’re arriving as U.S. students’ test scores are already stagnating in comparison with the rest of the world.

None of the migrants are legal immigrants, and some have criminal records.

Obama’s deputies aren’t blocking the release of youths with criminal records in Central America. Instead, they’re releasing them to the custody of their parents and relatives, who will likely send them to schools.

Many of the foreign children do not speak English or even Spanish.

In Dalton, the new students are from El Salvador and Guatemala, and “in most cases,” speak Indian languages, said Woodason.

“My eight year old grandson told me that all the problems there were because of corporations, and that everyone should be made to live in tiny houses.”

How did you respond? What do his patients tell him?
Someone is sowing the seeds of a cultural revolution.

Let L/E agencies know that YOU know-—all complaints/inquiries-—COMPEL investigations.

I’ve already seen small groups of these new invaders, in two local stores (grocery and Marshall’s)....so, you know they’ll be in our local schools, in August.

[jch10]

Governors should be standing against this invasion. Why are the State legislatures not demanding that these “children” not be settled in their states?

[Maine Mariner]

The Rats in MA are also about to learn first hand what exactly is meant by white privilege. And you are right they have voted for this for years.

[Tax-chick]

They thought they could get cheap household help and feel good about their “compassion,” and it would never affect them personally in any negative way. Well, so much for that plan.

[RIghtwardHo]

I’ve been around for a really long time (first vote was for Goldwater) and I have never seen America so divided. What will happen is a small movement one way or the other. America has become “the more things change, the more they remain the same”.

We have become a Nation where one side is the true enemy of the other. Two Nations masquerading as one?

[RIghtwardHo]

Sadly, that is only wishful thinking. There will be no backlash as those who would (us) are becoming older and older and fewer and fewer.

Of all the times I thought I would see in America, it isn’t this.

[TADSLOS]

We are now in the midst of a full blown asymmetrical war being engaged against the United States- Culturally, Politically and Economically from enemies foreign and domestic. Anyone who fails to acknowledge this is either blind, in denial or engaged directly or indirectly in the destruction of our Constitional Republic. The middle ground of peaceful resolution is crumbling under us. Pressure from all of this creates friction. Friction creates heat. Heat creates ignition. Ignition is close at hand.

I asked him where he learned that. He didn’t respond, so I asked him if he learned it at school and he nodded yes. I told my daughter about it but she just said that he is smart enough to arrive at his own conclusions. I just told her that kids at least need to be told both sides of issues.

[Tax-chick]

she just said that he is smart enough to arrive at his own conclusions

No matter how objectively intelligent a young child is, he is not informed enough to form an opinion on complex issues. He can only repeat what he's told, just as he (hopefully) repeats math facts and verb conjugations.

[thirst4truth]

A two fer for the democrats, 60,000-100,000 more democrat votes and more money for teachers unions so they can hire translators, foreign language textbooks, counselors and PA’s to take care of these illiterate, sick children.

[Rusty0604]

My grandson was enrolled in a school in OR that only spoke Spanish for half the day. (my daughter took him out after he kept coming home crying about it.) I went to a school meeting while I was visiting there, and I asked one of the Spanish only teachers why she thought the program was good. She replied that if it wasn’t for the program, she wouldn’t have a job.

I know, I worry about what they are being taught in school.

[Tax-chick]

I would, too. An adult might think to ask the teacher, “Do you live in a tiny house? No? Why not, if everyone should?” However, a child isn’t going to think of it ... and he certainly isn’t going to know that the entire population of the world could live in standard 3-br suburban houses in the area of Texas and Oklahoma.

“I just told her that kids at least need to be told both sides of issues.”

Absolutely. The children who are brainwashed to hate in Madrasses also have their own brains, but when presented with only one world view they incorporate that world view. Young minds are impressionable, and need to be protected.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

When they told us they wanted to raise taxes for the school kids, at least last time they were our own kids.

[bgill]

We already had more than our share if illegals in our schools. Every year our schools are getting more and more of Teresa Kerry’s little brown children. Every year our property taxes are rising so much so that many of our neighbors have sold out because they can’t afford the taxes or they’re having to delay retirement. Our taxes on an older small house on a small lot is up to nearly 3 MONTHS income. We’ve been hanging on by our finger nails for the past few years.
