Why do public school allow criminals to attend

Public schools are forced to educate illegals who often need special attention cause they don't speak English. They should require proof of citizenship upon enrollment

Of course 'illegals' should be given an education. Just because they are in the country unlawfully due to their parents actions, doesn't mean they should suffer educationally.

@SW-User no that just gives illegals more of an incentive to come here

@Mountainlady16 Most illegals are there to better the life of their children - mainly getting them an education.
How many 'legal' students are class clowns, disruptive, taking more attention from the teacher?
At least the illegal students want to learn.

@SW-User illegals should have signed up for visas and waited their turn not sneaked in

SW-User

@Mountainlady16 Children who are brought into the US (where I'm guessing you're from) commit no illegal act. So they're not criminals.
So why should they be denied an education??????

@SW-User cause they are not here legally. They are breaking the law plus they take up space in the already overcrowded schools

SW-User

@Mountainlady16 Did you not read what I said? Children who are brought into the US commit NO ILLEGAL ACT SO ARE NOT CRIMINALS. Meaning they are entitled to an education while there.
Class clowns and truants are also taking up space in overcrowded schools but I bet you have no problem with those.

@Mountainlady16 And you want to be a teacher? I hope to hell you never get that chance.

@SW-User i don't plan to teach in public school

@SW-User you are from Ireland you don't understand how these kids impact the education of others. Taking extra attention and money away from programs like music and art classes

SW-User

@Mountainlady16 It doesn't matter where I'm from or where you're from. The kids have done nothing wrong so they deserve an education.
And programs like music and art aren't real classes anyway so what does it matter, classes like that are a waste.

Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F

@SW-User music and art are important kids need to learn about both not just the basics. Classes to teach illegals to speak English are the waste

SW-User

@Mountainlady16 Lol yeah you're well suited to private elitist schools.

@SW-User i didn't go to an elitist school many the kids I went to school with where on scholarship. It was a small private school ran by the local southern Baptist association. But one big thing was kids had to speak English and proof of citizenship was required
