"It's not well-spent money to teach our students' parents how to learn English," said Knight, whose district includes Victorville. "A lot of parents do not speak English at home. A lot of kids go home and are put back in an environment where English is not spoken."

I believe a lot of Spanish speaking parents tell their children to speak English at school, but they had best speak Spanish at the house or face the consequences.
I believe there is a lot of emphasis placed on "tradition" and "we are Mexican".
