Schools in Arizona are starting immersion programs that mandate that students in public schools learn at least 50% of their studies in Mandarin Chinese. That means that half of their school day each day will be taught to the them in Chinese instead of english. They are also going to start teaching the children chinese starting in kindergarten and first grade and offer it all the way through high school. While this program is being spearheaded in select schools, could this be a foreshadow of things to come in the united states education system? Given the current state of the american economy and the fact that we are facing near economic collapse, could the fact that china holds more of the US debt than any other country signal grim signs ahead?
