<p>The Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund — MALDEF — along with other advocacy groups,  appeared in federal court in Austin in a suit against the Texas Education Agency.</p><!--endtext--><!--begintext-->
<p>The court’s role goes back to a 1971 case in which Texas was ordered to help non- English speakers catch up with English-speaking peers.</p>
<p>From such a directive, Texas adopted two approaches: (1) bilingual education and (2) English as a second language, or ESL. Either of these approaches ought to help students achieve. The MALDEF suit alleges that ESL in many districts fails miserably.</p>
<p>This clearly is a challenge for every school district. The Waco Independent School District, with 15,000 students, has about 1,900 who need bilingual or ESL classes. Of course, Spanish isn’t the only foreign language with which it must contend. WISD students speak roughly 50 different languages. (Lack of numbers precludes bilingual classes for all but Spanish speakers.)</p>
<p>Though some forces want to treat bilingual classes as a bogeyman, the evidence is convincing that students in quality bilingual classes do a better job generally in meeting all the requirements of a balanced education. After all, they learn various core subjects more easily in a primary tongue than they would in a foreign tongue. The question: Do they learn English sufficiently?</p>
<p>On the other hand, in ESL, where teachers generally speak English, students can fall behind English-speaking peers on other subjects but possibly learn English faster by being immersed in it.</p>
<p>Only a small percentage of Waco’s Spanish-speaking families opts out of bilingual classes. When they do, theparents’ expressed concern is that their children will not learn English. Though the concern may be misplaced, WISD needs to take it seriously.</p>
<p>To that end, WISD is exploring a goal of dramatically weaning Spanish-speaking students from their native language by second grade. WISD has bilingual through second grade on eight elementary campuses. A big success story in bilingual education is dual-language classes, in which English-speakers and Spanish-speakers have been shown to coexist and thrive — both groups emerging bilingual.</p>
<p>In ESL, more evidence is showing that so-called pull-out programs, in which those with a language deficiency go to an ESL classroom for a set period, do not do as well as when ESL teachers use the “inclusion” method — coming into the mainstreamed classroom and helping to clarify for those with English deficiencies what the classroom teacher presents to all.</p>
<p>The less disruption for ESL students, the better. And of course, the more emphasis on English, the better.</p>
