Isn't this grand? Someone is supplying more Spanish books for our students who need to learn English. Books on Mexico's geography. This is a translation from La Raza.

During a visit to Chicago on 5 and 6 October 2007, Josefina Vazquez Mota, owner of the Secretariat of Public Education in Mexico, learned of the efforts that some teachers Waukegan had to buy books in Spanish.

One of the stories told was three teachers who organized functions of Mexican cinema and selling popcorn to buy books and nurture the library that serves nearly 800 students at Clearview.

Vazquez Mota was interested, and then pledged to donate books to the school.

Weeks after the promise was fulfilled, and although neither the school nor the Clearview Promoter of Education Consulate reported that Vazquez Mota had fulfilled his word, as recently as February 26 La Raza learned through the director of the school, Jose Lara, the books had arrived at their destination.

But the surprise was the largest since March 4 the Consulate General of Mexico in Chicago, through the promotion of education Andrea Lara, delivered 52 boxes of textbooks sent by the SEP to be distributed in schools in the School District # 60.

Brazos open

The book donation was received with open arms by Ruth Mendez, the Bilingual School District # 60, and Carlos Sanchez, a parent.

He also thanked Jose Lara, the principal Clearview, the first to receive the books.

The story began when La Raza distributed the effort of the teachers Rosanna Cardenas, Eufemia and Yadira Rodriguez Cabrera of the school Clearview.

They were devoted to organise functions cinema events for parents and celebrations for children, and spent the proceeds to acquire books in Spanish.

The donation of the 52 boxes of books was finalized on Tuesday, March 4. They went to the consulate mother Felicitas Ortega, Carlos Sanchez and Ruth Mendez, who drove a truck officer School District # 60.

The three, along with Andrea Lara, books loaded on the vehicle for distribution in schools. The boxes with textbooks contain books first to sixth grade in addition to "Meet our Constitution," a Universal Atlas of Geography and an Atlas of Mexico for primary education.

"Thank you for bringing us books for our children," was one of many statements of gratitude he has received Carlos Sanchez, president of the Council of Bilingual Parents and mentors to parents for the School District. © La Raza

What???

Teaching Mexican geography, in Spanish? No wonder these people don't know their bottom from their elbow. They are confused! Anybody has a map of Waukegan? They are looking at a map of central Mexico.

The major unifying thing for a country is language. They are doing this on purpose in order to undermine English in an effort to reclaim "their" territory for Mexico...

Schools in California are given textbooks in Spanish, they come in through the "back door" without the school boards knowing about it. The illegal alien teachers use them in their classes and teach the Mexican Consitution and that California is really Mexico.

People, we really need to wake up and get these people out of our sovereign country.
