No need to insult me if you cannot answer the question. It's nice to say "it's good to know a second language" - but for practical purposes such as jobs/careers, how is it good? That's all I've been asking, but instead of an answer I just get insults and accusations.
If you aren't looking to be in a career where being bilingual will get you a job, or, if you don't plan to travel and want to make an effort to speak with locals, then learning a second language as an adult might not be worth your time. It's all in what interests you.
As a young student, the ones that have learned a second language tend to get higher test scores in verbal, nonverbal, and math tests such as the SAT, ACT.
Back to topic, I think the program at Folsom Hills is great, the teachers are great, but it's unrealistic to think you are going to send your child to the Spanish Magnet (FLES) program and have them fluently speaking Spanish at the end of elementary. Remember, these teachers have just as much time in the day to accomplish all the other education requirements as the classes that aren't FLES. They will learn about countries and cultures where Spanish is spoken, which is a plus, and I think younger children can perfect the accent much easier than an adult can, another plus. As Nomad points out, YMMV. IMHO, to get the most out of the program, as a parent, you will need to be prepared to work hard at home with your child, which will be hard if you barely remember your own high school Spanish.
I wasn't aware that the middle school Spanish would translate into high school credit (from puppylover's post), but I don't think you need to go through FLES to take Spanish at SMS. Someone please correct me if I'm mistaken.
Hope this helps.
