Question

Most educators and parents often wonder about American students falling behind the rest of the world in math and science. However, few of us think about the importance of teaching arts and language to students at a young age. Many don't even consider foreign language as an option to elementary or middle school students. We forget that students cannot pick up subtleties of language at a ripe age. We lose the ability to pronounce certain vowels and consonants absent in English language, if our brains aren't introduced to different sounds early in life. If we are to produce leaders of the world, we need to give students at least the option of learning a foreign language at a young age.
