[quote=Anonymous]Doesn’t hurt because the language instruction is usually pretty mediocre and doesn’t actually produce fluency unless the kid is really focused on practicing it. If kid is focused on language it doesn’t matter if their first year is 9th grade as long as they earnestly work at it. Fwiw, I took 1 language 4th-6th, another language 7-9th, then a third 10-12th. My third language I really focused on it, studied abroad, and crushed SAT II with an 800. With third it was very intentional and I worked very hard at it. [/quote]
