ESL or English as a second language does not mean "kids are taught in TWO DIFFERENT LANGUAGES in school"
It means that the studens who are in ESL classes are learing English as their second language. This because their native language is not English. Hence, English AS A second language. Just like if you learned German or French. That would be your second language.
Well jeez Vince! You should be in favorof this! You want these kids to learn English, don't you?!

There are different kinds of equality. Equality in terms of ablities is one thing, whereas equality in terms of rights is another.

Museums are worthless and don't benefit the world?! Wow, I guess you really are a Philistine.
