[quote=Anonymous]My understanding is that there is no concern with languages through Level 3, but that as you continue there are huge jumps as you get up toward the AP levels. If a child is really strong at the language, this is no concern but they will be in classes with native speakers at that point which can make things more challenging. The earlier your child starts a language, the higher your child will need to go in the very challenging courses. For some, this is a positive, but for many others it is actually better to delay starting the language so that when they are in high school they are not forced to take the very high levels with the native speakers. I was highly advised to not have my child start a language in 6th for this very reason. I am glad I followed that advise.[/quote]
