The Chicago, Illinois public school system has enrolled an estimated 2,000 migrant children for the school year, which started August 21 as local taxpayers are spending millions more for bilingual instruction programs.
As the school year started in Chicago last month, about 2,000 migrant children are expected to have been and are soon to be enrolled in public schools — many with little-to-no help with their language barrier, according to parents and volunteers who spoke to the Chicago Tribune.
When some migrant children sought to go to school on the first day, their parents said they were turned away because “they didn’t have people who spoke Spanish.” One volunteer said migrant children at Chicago schools will likely “be on their own, using Google Translate.”
