Hawaii

That is effectively what they are...taxpayer funded niche environments that now want exceptions to what every other public school in the state is doing.

To debunk the "We do it for Hispanics" argument...there are no immigrants arriving who speak only Hawaiian. When I grew up in Honolulu, no one came to school with Hawaiian being their only language. I do not believe that has changed.

The Hawaii school systems are still in deep yogurt. They never really did do what Federal law requires for children with disabilities due to budget concerns, and that was about a decade back. The overall situation has worsened since then.

I have nothing against the language or its people, since they are also my ohana. Hawaiian was the first language I learned after English. If we really cared about the the children, we would shut down the immersion schools or at least limit expenditures on them to no more than an equivalent public school and make sure their graduates are also adequately skilled in standard academics.
