<<Bi-lingual education>> Elroy, thanks for the inspirational post! I admire someone who speaks multiple languages, and agree there should be more emphasis on it in the US. Unfortunately, the way bi-lingual education is implemented in California does the opposite of what you experienced. In Califonia many of the students, especially the Spanish speaking ones, are taught completely in their native tongue and thus do not learn English. This decreases their assimiliation into the US culture, limits their job prospects, and alienates them and their famililes (since in many cases a child is the only one in the family that speaks English) from the majority of Americans. The best part is that it is also very expensive! Contrary to your experience, bi-lingual education in California does not make children bi-lingual; instead it keeps them from becoming bi-lingual.
