[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This comes up every year and I get needlessly aggravated. I was a triple major in college with two languages and my oldest child took 7 years of Spanish in MS and HS, so I’m not any language. But some kids just do not like it, and the truth is almost no one can speak Spanish decently just from taking HS Spanish in most public schools. It is just a waste of time for most kids. My younger kid really wants to quit after Spanish 4 in 10th grade so they can double up on AP science and math classes (AP phy, AP chem, AP calc, AP stats). It seems dumb to make them instead take Spanish 5, when in reality I know they will get very little from it. [/quote] You need to read up more on why the top schools seek this.[/quote]
