i agree with a reevaluation of the budget requirements of the school system, but your points about bilingual teachers and breakfast are both poor ones.

having bilingual teachers in any school should have big impacts on any childs development of how they view the world.. so kids seeing people from different cultures would be kind of a 'gateway' to learning about new/different ideas

there is no point trying to teach hungry children.
