Let Marlboro pupils share English lessons with Freehold youngsters

As explained in the article "Pupils' Spanish Lessons Get Practical Application" (News Transcript, June 18), the Acelero Head Start program is designed to assist non-English speaking 3- to 5-year-olds with learning basic preschool knowledge skills in a full immersion English language environment.

This process is believed to have the children better prepared for public preschool and kindergarten. I believe that why our tax dollars are funding this program and the English a Second Language programs our public schools.

If the goal is to have the children speaking, reading and recognizing English, why would Marlboro Middle School students present Spanish stories to the children? Only the Marlboro students benefited from this endeavor.

There is a sizable amount of money being spent on educating our non-English speaking student population, however, it appears to be a senseless effort.

When the children only hear Spanish at home and when the school sends paperwork home in Spanish and delivers Spanish messages by phone, the process of learning English is prolonged and promotes wasteful spending.

I hope the Marlboro Middle School students will visit the school again, only with English stories that the children can enjoy and learn from.

I am fortunate enough to have met the author of the above letter. Ms. Chaffer is an average, everyday, decent person without a hateful bone in her body.

I will be very interested in seeing what, if any, rebuttal comes from the usual open borders creepfest. I will bet any site participant 10 Karma points on the following. ( pay attention CR, you could use the karma points)

If the open borders types do respond, they will be incapable of doing so with out degrading, dehumanizing, and disrespecting Ms. Chaffer. I bet that any open borders person who responds will not be able to do so without using hateful words like bigot, racist, xenophobe, or nativist. You all know, the usual hate the open borders crowd spews.

If the response that Dave Landry got is any indication, then Ms, Chaffer is in for an interesting response.

Any takers on that bet?

One other point... if any who disagree with the above letter do respond, we will also have the privilege of listening to them devalue the real need for immigrants, legal or other wise, to learn English. For some weird reason, the open borders crowd actually hates the idea of a common language.

According to Barack Obama, this woman should be embarrassed that her children do not speak Spanish.

Why does he loath Americans so much?
