[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Speaking a second language is extremely important for reasons going well beyond college admissions. You are doing your child a major disservice. [/quote] Missing the point. Some kids would rather learn a language to fluency and recognize that there are more effective ways to do that than memorize a vocab list for a high school class largely conducted in English. These kids may have other classes that they want to prioritize in high school where they will actually learn something. So the question remains, what is the impact on college admissions? The value of the second language is huge and can be studied at a different time and place in life. [/quote]
