Rethinking Schools Online - Special Collection On Bilingual Education who currently make up 54% of california's LEP enrollment permitted only for childrenwith special physical, emotional judged to be learning disabled or mentally http://www.rethinkingschools.org/special_reports/bilingual/langmn.shtml

Search Rethinking Schools Help Home Special Collection on Bilingual Education California Referendum Mandates 'English-only' California Referendum Mandates 'English-only' June 2 Vote Could Set National Precedent In 1967, California Gov. Ronald Reagan signed legislation authorizing bilingual education and ending a 95-year-old state mandate that "all schools shall be taught in the English language." The bipartisan legislation passed during an era of militancy on civil rights issues and was based on evidence that English-only schooling had harmed Hispanic, Asian, and Native-American students. The 1960 Census showed, for example, that 50% of California's Mexican-American residents aged 18-24 had dropped out of school before completing the 8th grade. Now, 30 years later, a wealthy and politically ambitious California businessman by the name of Ron Unz wants to ban bilingual instruction and re-impose an English-only mandate on all state classrooms. Unz is the man behind the so-called "English for the Children" initiative that will go before California voters on June 2. The ballot measure, officially known as Proposition 227, goes far beyond the symbolism of previous English-only campaigns and strikes at the heart of public education and the right to equal educational opportunity. Further, it is part of a national backlash against immigration and, if successful, could establish a chilling precedent for other districts and states with large numbers of students who do not speak English as their first language.

Local parents cry out for special-needs kids' services JOSHUA BRANDT Bulletin Correspondent Dismayed by what they called a dearth of services for children with special needs in the Jewish community, a dozen battle-weary parents convened last week to address the situation. The group, which met at San Francisco's Bureau of Jewish Education, the organizer of the Special Needs Forum, represented a spectrum of concerns, from the needs of children with attention-deficit disorder to those with developmental and physical disabilities. The parents were uniform in their belief that the organized Jewish community has given short shrift to their children's educational needs. Robbie Holland, who traveled from Sacramento to attend the forum, said his daughter Rachel, who has physical and developmental disabilities, was once asked a question that typified his family's experience within the Jewish educational system. "Another child asked my daughter whether she was Jewish or retarded," Holland said. "Now it was clear that the child who asked Rachel the question didn't mean it to be malicious, and that she was clearly struggling with the concept. But the thinking was that she couldn't possibly be both...and I think in essence that's one of the reasons that this group is meeting." Holland, who was called a hero by other members of the forum, is somewhat of a
