Yes, it is. You can learn another language to communicate with others who do no know your main language. If your first language is English, but this person you are talking to does not know English you can speak to him in a language that person knows like maybe he knows Chinese and your second just happens to be Chinese.
If the students learn more languages younger, it will be easier for them to remember and learn then if you were older and you learn it in school because it helps to learn another language for students, and it can later be useful.
