/ #35 World Languages (aka Spanish ONLY) in the MS

2014-01-08 23:26

If world languages are going to be offered at lower levels, there should be a choice of which one to take. This district used to have an exploratory class in the middle school when my daughter was that age. Students got a taste of German, French and Spanish to make better decisions as to which one to concentrate on later. Spanish shouldn't be the only language the students are expected to learn, especially when this district has 4-year programs along with college-level classes in German and French as well. How does requiring Spanish promote diversity, one of the cornerstones of this district??
