    RE “MAYBE SCHOOLS IN AMERICA SHOULD JUST STOP HAVING FOREIGN LANGUAGE WEEKS”

    How can people object to a languge other than English. I was under the impression that the USA, as opposed say to us in Canada does not have an official language. We have two, French and English.

    I suppose logically parents could withdraw children from school if the school was using that funny language called English which is not the language they speak as US citizens.
