Actually in some places it IS required to take a foriegn language for all 4
years of high school, sometimes part of Middle school in order to graduate.
 When I was in school, I had to take 4 credits (4 years) of either French
or Spanish (required languages) and 2 credits in middle.  I graduated not
that long ago.
Hey Alexis, I too had to take a foreign language in both middle school and
high school...I took 3 years of spanish in middle school and 3 years in high
school, I'm not really sure if it's required by all NYC public schools, I
went to college preparatory schools so I don't really know if that's unique
to those types of schools or if it's a citywide thing.
