There are compelling reasons why students should study a foreign language:  

•  To learn about other cultures and to value cultural diversity
• To improve their employment opportunities
• To enhance performance in other academic endeavors.

Nationwide, less than forty percent of high school students are currently enrolled in foreign language classes.  Only 30-35 percent of our middle schools offer a full year's study of a foreign language.  On the bright side, a growing number of elementary schools now offer foreign language programs.  This ties to recent brain research which emphasizes that a second language can be learned most easily if study begins before age ten.  Enrollment is also growing in adult-education courses.  Can motivation compensate for lost dendrites?  Hope springs eternal....
