[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all, four years of high school Spanish is different than getting to Spanish level 4. Getting to Spanish 4 in 11th grade shouldn't mean you're "done." Second, so many people are talking about what is the best decision for just getting IN to college. What about being a well-educated person who can work in a field that isn't hyper local? Most companies are multi-national. Having a good working knowledge of a second language should be seen as a good thing, not just a check box for getting in to college.[/quote] Except the kid is taking Spanish 5 in 11th grade. Also for those posters talking about the importance of foreign language proficiency and the importance of loving to learn different subjects instead of just checking boxes, I hear you but I think it is possible for a child to love learning while not loving one particular subject.
