Seriously though, if there is a standard education requirement for American children, shouldn’t there be an equivalent for all immigrants? Just as a matter of principle; the technicalities can be figured out later.

Yes, I want to try to figure out the technicalities for this myself actually! I think it would be very beneficial for immigrants to be educated on a similar standard to better be able to understand the American culture and systems! It’s hard though because most of the countries people want/need to move from don’t offer education like we have in the U.S. In fact, a lot of those countries and the people who want to leave aren’t in the best financial positions.

Yes and I think a reasonable minimum could be whatever the worst performing state’s averages are

Something I was thinking was asking education majors to volunteer or ‘student teach’ these people. It can count toward the hours they need for student teaching in a way while also educating (possible) citizens! I say possible because I’m not exactly sure how testing or being accepted would go.. please let me know any flaws this may have or details that should be added!

And reevaluate every 4 years I guess since that’s how long it takes to go through the 4 grades in high school, so it’d be changing with every new set of graduates from whenever it was first implemented

It’s going to be hard, but I believe if people from different fields and strengths come together, we can make it happen!

Exactly my consideration, since immigration is here to stay, let’s at least be adults about how best to facilitate the process
