Odd Arithmetic in Massachusetts
"Mayor Thomas M. Menino and Schools Superintendent Thomas Payzant yesterday predicted whopping costs and lengthy delays in teacher training if Boston is forced to replace bilingual education with English immersion," notes the Boston Herald. The "costs" include "millions on new English language books." This begs the question: in what language are the books currently used in Massachusett's bilingual education programs? If textbooks in English are a new expense, that says a lot about how little English was actually used in the allegedly "bilingual" programs.
