I didn't go to Denver schools, but attended a nearby public school system. This was many decades ago, but the system probably works in the same way. The set up is really a expensive babysitting scam. Probably makes little difference if the child speaks English, Spanish or Swahili. I should have been apprenticed to someone at an early age, but being lazy, fat and somewhat stupid, that probably would have been a dead end for me as well. My bet is that a large number illegals would probably respond in a positive way to that sort of program. Then you could get someone that could actually fix your furnace or remodel your basement. I wouldn't really care were they were from. Apparently no one else does either at this point, but getting them away from wasting their time in a public school would b a positive.
