- Description
- The Need of Spanish: In this country every high school of any size includes in its curriculum French or German, or both. This is well; at least one of these languages should be studied by every high school student. Undoubtedly these languages benefit the person who studies them even though he may perhaps never have occasion to speak them after leaving school. The school authorities realize the importance of these languages; they include them among the high school studies. But a language that might be of much more value to an American boy is omitted from the language group. Spanish, which in this country stands next in importance to English, finds no place in the majority of American High schools, although it is spoken as commonly as English in some of our western states.
