That black kid being raised by a single mother doing 3 jobs will do much better if he does not have to learn that extra language which he wont use any ways The counterargument is that the child from underprivileged background is better served by Spanish instruction because he won't have the family support (and Latina nanny) that a child from a wealthy family has. It's an ongoing problem at my institution. The students, many of whom are first-generation students, are accepted into their science program and a huge number has serious deficiencies in basic algebra! Differential calculus is completely out of the question. If you don't offer the opportunity at school you are cementing in the two-class society.
