Plenty of usefulness with being bilingual. French itself is useless though here in the states and in commerce.

Try Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Russian, Farsi, Spanish, etc. before French gets any consideration.

Chinese and Spanish may be more useful. French is certainly a better language for an American student to study than the others. I could see studying Arabic, but no Farsi.

What makes french better, or even useful at all?

French is used by many international organizations as a second official language.

That's right! Think about the last time you watched the Olympics. Wherever it's taking place, French is spoken.

Yes, I'm convinced now. I surely wouldn't be able to tell if a team scored a soccer goal.

"Allez vous faire foutre" just has the perfect ring for DCUM.

that's probably about the only thing that French Immersion is good for...is to learn curse words.

Fuck you too.

Also, knowing a second language makes it much easier to learn a third.

Did the critic of the immersion program say he/she lived in McLean? The KG community is very supportive of the school, although there were critics of the principal who just retired.

I do think many people would like to see a few Chinese immersion programs in FCSP elementary schools, and fewer Spanish immersion programs.

And which international organization are the kids at Kent Gardens interfacing with?

French is worthless.

Learning reading, math, social studies, and science in french is useless when it comes to taking the SOL's.

Most frenchies at KG can speak a lot better than they can read or write.
