Why Schools in America Treat Bilingualism Like a Liability, Not an Asset When I filled out my daughter’s kindergarten intake form, I thought I was honoring her bilingualism. Instead, I triggered a test that told me how little our schools value languages beyond English.

My hot take on why schools in the United States treat bilingualism like a liability and not an asset in the very first few days of kindergarten.

Student misses class and doesn't let me know.
After a follow up email, student states they were sick.
Student also happened to post on social media that they were jogging along Santa Monica beach a couple hours before said class.
Come ON.

YouTube video by The Bilingual Professor Receptive Bilinguals Are Not Monolingual | The Bilingual Professor

Making soy sauce eggs and, let me tell you, when I measured each liquid, I was crouching down to make sure it hit the bottom of the meniscus. Who said AP chemistry wasn’t relevant?

Said no to two things. Keeping control of my schedule and pushing things to later dates when they aren't urgent.

Chaperoned a kindergarten field trip to Huntington Library/Gardens and am reminded that teaching first grade is the hardest thing I ever did (though it was so rewarding).

Ugh I just said yes to something big. More service.

Just said no to a review for an awesome journal on an interesting topic.

Oooh yay! Lmk how they’re received ☺️ and always open to ideas on new topics
