Just read the local newspaper here and they're looking at ways to cut another 350k from the school budget. They've already added furlough days, the parents already purchase all the supplies for the teachers (copy paper, dry erase markers, etc).

I'm curious if anyone knows where or how one would go about finding out how many illegals and anchor babies are in a school system, how much it costs per student to attend a public school, and how much ESL courses, free lunches/breakfasts, etc that these kids are getting at the cost of the tax payers and at the cost of educating AMERICAN children as they used to and should be.

I'm seriously getting pissed at all the problems our country has with education when an obvious way of freeing up MILLIONS of dollars is right there. Our education system is in the toilet for money, our kids are being educated incorrectly, and one of the reasons is because kids that should NOT be in our system are in the system.

I do feel for the kids of the illegals and the anchor babies because it's not their fault, it's their parent's fault. But the citizens of this country need to come FIRST, our standards of education and living should not be lowered because of them.

Any help/advise is appreciated.
