The article "El Plan Bilingue" once again reassures what we already know: once a political party wins the elctions, they will accomodate education to their convenience and political ideas. This is of great concern to us puerto ricans because our students spend 12 years of their lives taking clases in our schools, which means that they can see various political changes throughout those years. The question is: should our education sistem be bilingual? I believe that bilingual schools are a good idea. The problem is that students need consistency, and that doesn't seem to be a word in the "political dictionary". They seem to just care about aquiring followers and votes and winning elections but they seem to forget about the children, the futur of our beloved country. Another situation with bilingual schools is the resistance of our people to the english language. This is extremely upsetting considering all the advantages that knowing a second language will bring. I just hope that people open their eyes and change their closed mentality and try to do something to make better citizens in the future.
