Kathy Munoz: Assimilation starts as immigrants are welcomed into classrooms
In America it happens so quickly. Those who are new to our country begin to think of themselves as Americans. We are the superstars of assimilation because of our public schools. When I visit my grandson’s third-grade class I see how it is done. A determined effort to see that every child succeeds.
Thank you to all our teachers! Have a wonderful, refreshing summer, and know that you make America great – and you have since public education began.
