[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It hardly matters. Your kid will do the language requirement in high school and then never speak a word of it again.[/quote] This is the truth! The year to start a language is K like every other country. But America seems fine with making sure their students fake learn a language. [/quote] I recently moved to NJ from DC. I was surprised to see that in my school district, spanish starts in K once per week and continues through 5th. In 6th they get one semester of Spanish and one semester of French. In 7th grade students choose between Spanish or French. Chinese is offered in 8th grade as a language that can be taken in addition to Spanish/French. [/quote]
