It should be mandatory to graduate that you speak at least one foreign language. It opens up a lot of doors and removes culture barriers. Plus it is a great leg up for when you have to fill the language requirement at most colleges.
I think that it is very important because students need to be exposed to different cultures. If more graduates from Louisiana or any state for that matter had taken a foreign language for many years, it would improve the image of that state and our country as a whole. Also, it has been proven that students who take a foreign language class score better on their Sat's than students who do not.
Yes. There are no downsides to learning a foreign language, and many upsides. Knowledge of a foreign language can give students an advantage in the working world as well as teach them a new way of thinking.
And, at the very least, they'd have an advantage if they traveled to a foreign country.
I think yes. Mandarin Chinese is the most widely spoken language in the world. China is emerging from a period of stagnation and again taking it's place as one of the great powers of the world. Learning Chinese can increase one's job opportunity as well as broaden one's vision.
There are advantages to learning another language, although they might not be obvious to the student at the time.
Should it be conpulsory in all secondary schools? Maybe not in every case. In some countries there are parallel track of academic and vocational secondary school.

Students should learn a new language because it opens up their world. It helps them with understanding other people. It also helps with the understanding of the history of a place.
Yes, because it could one day be good for you in life
Yes students should be required to learn a foreign language in order to graduate high school
yes, well because it will help you in high school and collage. so it's like learning the language before going to a higher grade to get credit for it.
No, I don't have a language at my school.
It should only be used when it is used as a title. For example: He was studying for a bachelor of arts in middle eastern languages. VS John Smith, Bachelor of Arts [middle eastern languages does not require capitalization here]
It would be hard to tell, considering the fact that there are no middle level languages.
No. It is up to individual schools and individual school districts to make that determination. Most Middle and High Schools do offer a foreign Language and have for years. English as a second language may also be found in some schools but it is not required by law - at this point anyway!
