In a globalized economy, knowing more than 1 language is very important. An idea we had was related to foreign languages and giving our children more opportunities to learn a 2nd or 3rd language before the 7th grade.

We are lucky to have the Piedmont Language School, and I know PLS has been trying to influence the curriculum so that language can be introduced in the 6th grade (start of middle school) or, better yet, in the elementary school level.

Will Piedmont work to offer students foreign language classes in elementary school?
