Where are the foreign languages?
After looking at the courses offered in Arts & Humanities, I was surprised to see that you do not offer any lessons in foreign language. In a globalized society such as ours, I think that it is imperative to learn how to speak at least one language other than your native tongue. Beyond the basics of grammar and vocabulary acquisition, foreign languages teach us how to communicate which is an important skill to learn. They also teach us how to look outside of our own culture & customs and appreciate how others live. I hope to see this added to the curriculum because I think there is too much emphasis on STEM education and not enough on STEAM. The Arts may not be considered a core subject but that doesn't mean that it is not as important as one. Foreign language is a key component to Arts & Humanities and a vital element in a well-rounded education.
