Back in our sub-teacher days, Bernardsville had a large Paraguayan ex-pat population. Nice kids. We always felt for them during the winter. Bernards High School's language policy was simple, they paired a new kid up with an older kid and threw them into an ESL class. That kid learned English via emersion. The class TV was always on during the World Cup. We once jokingly called soccer a woman's game. Those kids weren't angry, they weren't even offended. They were hurt. They came up to us after class and spoke lovingly of their game.
