Let's carry that logic out to its end:
"So generous of my neighbor to pay for the education of my child."

End collectivized education, it's immoral and really has just made the population dumber.

I thought you were joking at first, then I read the article. No, these internationals are not visiting exchange students from Sweden, France or Japan.

Last year’s spike in Montgomery County was at least partly driven by an influx
of unaccompanied minors from Central America, district officials say. The number
of students from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras more than doubled compared
with peak enrollment periods a year earlier, according to district figures.

I'd rather have the wine.

This writer was positively gushing over the massive expense Montgomery County will have to spend because these people were not sent home.

You should see what diversity has done to Montgomery County school system:

Quote:
As Maryland’s largest school district rethinks its long practice of giving final exams, new data show that steep exam failure rates persist in math, with three out of four high school students flunking the June test in Algebra 1.
...

In all, 74 percent of high school students in Montgomery failed June’s Algebra 1 semester-end final, as did 14 percent of middle school students, according to the data. Last year, 82 percent of high school students and 23 percent of middle school students failed the exams before the school system added extra points.

Three out of four high schoolers failed Algebra 1 final exams in Md. district - The Washington Post
At one time Montgomery County had one of the best public school systems in the country. But as Hispanics have largely replaced whites in Montgomery County, the school system's reputation for excellence has taken a dive.
