Oh, here's the worst part: over half of them are on the honor roll, yet they continued to languish in ESOL because of that weird ACCESS test. I think that lots of American kids wouldn't pass it--they have to remember all these instructions in English and react to them.
Most were still in because their elementary teachers felt they still needed it. Okay...American-born, honor roll, great band and/or chorus members and they still need those classes? Creo que no!
