Should Ebonics Be Taught In High Schools? I feel
that if Ebonics were to be taught in high schools
today, it would lower the already low standards on
public education today. In most California
schools, the competency level among its students
in the reading and math department is already at
an all time low, and by allowing Ebonics into the
school system, it advocates less school work as
well as laziness among its students. To say that
Ebonics is a foreign language is wrong. It is the
