Then you haven't talked to very many TJ alums. The majority of kids taking Spanish stop taking Spanish after Spanish 3. Most other languages have decent participation to level 4 or AP.

what other languages have more than Spanish participation to level 4 or AP? None!! For a fact, AP spanish has most enrollment than any other AP world language.
