The Foreign Language department is crucial in preparing students for a globally interconnected world by fostering essential communication skills, cultural understanding, and academic readiness. These departments offer diverse language programs, such as Spanish and Chinese, ranging from introductory levels to advanced Advanced Placement (AP) courses like AP Spanish and AP Chinese.

The curriculum is designed to promote language acquisition through interactive activities, enabling students to write, read, understand, and speak the target language effectively. Beyond practical communication, foreign language studies aim to link students’ understanding with tolerance and acceptance of other people and cultures, recognizing that proficiency in another language is increasingly necessary for success in an economically and politically interdependent world.
