Feds Force Arabic Classes on Young Texas Students

(Mansfield, Texas) The U.S. Department of Education gave a wad of cash to the Mansfield Independent School District with the stipulation that elementary and intermediate school students be forced to learn the Arabic language.

Interestingly, it wasn't until after the deal was done that students' parents were informed. They are not amused.

I'd suggest that Mansfield schools are far from independent if the Obama administration is dictating policy. Arguably, the tagline "Don't Mess With Texas" is not relevant in Mansfield.
