[quote=Anonymous]I speak 3 foreign languages, two very fluently and one just okay. I learned all of them as an adult and it was exhausting. That said, I love the exposure to another culture that each one of them gives me. I want DC to have access to those cultures and it would be great to not have to learn it all as an adult, which was indeed exhausting. DH went to an immersion school. While he hardly uses that language now, learning it well as a kid has given him a leg up on the other foreign languages that he has learned as an adult. Above noted, I don't think it is the MOST important thing in a school. You can support language learning at home if you have the commitment to do so. But I do feel that it us going to be a lot easier with DC at an immersion school.[/quote]
