Why there's no need for English-only laws
SUIT: From last July by John Scheibe and Michelle L. Klampe in the Ventura County Star, a comprehensive and well-detailed report on a lawsuit as it stood then against the privately-owned California Alternative High School. The Resedan who was among the first to file suit in California went from buying into the scheme and then mistrusting it.

Bessy Echeverria, a 28-year-old El Salvadoran immigrant from Reseda, first heard about the school at her Encino church, Iglesia de Dios Camino.
"I believed in his claims more because I heard them at my church. I thought they had to be true," she said.
Echeverria, her sister-in-law Saira Echeverria and their friend Maria A. Quiones signed up for Gossai's program. Bessy Echeverria said she had suspicions about the legitimacy of the school because the classes were all taught in Spanish.
