WHY STUDY ANOTHER LANGUAGE ?
• « We have strong evidence today that studying a foreign language has a ripple effect, helping to improve student performance in other subjects. » Richard Riley, former U.S. Secretary of Education
• Children who have studied a language at the elementary level score higher on tests in math, reading and language arts as well as having improved mental flexibility, creativity, reasoning and problem solving.
• The study of foreign languages improves chances of entry into college or graduate school.
• Language study helps the student appreciate international literature, music and film. Most of the world’s literary and artistic works have been written in languages other than English.
• Travel is more feasible and enjoyable if one knows a little of the spoken language of the country visited.
• Study abroad options are increased with knowledge of more than one language.
• Multiple language skills are necessary for participation in the increasingly competitive world of academics and business
