  Of course not. They are stupid as well.   Seriously? Where do you live? I'm not being sarcastic; I'm genuinely interested, because where I live the situation is the polar opposite of that.  My community has had a massive influx of illegal immigrants over the past 20 years, and I haven't seen any evidence that they care about education. At least, the kids of the immigrants don't. I went to public school with many of them and they were almost uniformly lazy. Whites outperformed them across the board, even in the Spanish classes ironically.  My community has had a massive influx as well, i look around at public schools nowadays and all you see and here are excuses to give an immigrant child every reason not to work through school. They go through E.S.L classes when they can clearly speak and understand the english language. Why give them anything if they can't work to get into the country legally?    I am almost 17 years of age and this country has changed dramatically. i went to a High School where white teens were a minority. A good portion of the faculty were either hispanic or black. Explain the sense in that.
