The recent inspection revealed teachers providing instruction in Spanish instead of the legally required English, students unable to answer questions in English, and teachers' instructions such as "Sometimes, you are not gonna know some."

Wwe are concerned with the students passing the AIMS test. What about the teachers passing english class?

I was in a medical bldg. in Mesa on Wed. They called out a name and when the woman got to the door to go in she was asked if she could speak english. I didn't hear the answer, I was standing at the desk filling out papers and said under my breath, if she doesn't she better learn. The lady behind the desk agreed and said "we have to learn to speak spanish now to keep our job.." Now is this BS or not?
Sorry shovelhead, it didn't take me long to change your thread.

A friend of mine has a girlfriend who lives in the valley that was passed over for promotion to a supervisory position because she didn't speak spanish. Now that is BS!

My granddaughter was refused a job here in Payson because she was not bilingual.
