Around and around and around we go.
Just when Horne & Co. thought the Supreme Court ruling on our ELL program meant he had won the battle and didn't have to spend more money to educate ELL students, the battle begins anew.
Judge Collins was told by The Supremes he couldn't take ELL problems in Nogales and use them to increase ELL spending all over the state. Ah, yes, Collins replies, but The Supremes also told him, if he finds evidence of statewide violations, then his order may still be valid. And how do you find if there are statewide violations? You look at ELL practices all over the state.
The only way he can do that, said Collins, is by letting attorney Tim Hogan present his evidence that Arizona is out of compliance.
It ain't over 'til it's over. And what's a few more years? After all, this case has been going on since 1992.
