From a rather poorly written letter from the mother of a special education child in California (Mexican).
Mr. X entraba y te decia que si asi estaba bien escrito, tu no tienes nada que escribir en los libros de los ayudantes esto es ilegal y es violar las leyes federales e estatales de la educacion especial, tu con mi hijo tienes **campo cerrado** porque tu no eres la administradora de mi hijo yo se que el administrador de mi hijo es Mr. Y.
Mrs. A y Mr. Y en la clase de ingles tienen **campo cerrado** no tienen nada que hacer con estos libros es ilegal.
