I agree with most of the other posters:
If he has completed Spanish IV, that's all he needs to meet the admissions requirements at every college in the country. So if he has no interest in it, he should not bother taking Spanish in his senior year. If there is a foreign language requirement at the school he ends up attending, there is still a chance he could demonstrate proficiency by passing that school's placement test. (He could spend some time reviewing and practicing before he takes the test.) If not, he would certainly have to take just a semester or two of Spanish to complete his requirement, or he could just start all over with another language like Portugese.
I would also advise your son to take AP Calc BC rather than AP Statistics. Because statistics really doesn't require any advanced math, many colleges do not give any credit for AP Statistics and/or will not count it as satisfying their core requirement in math. Also, if he plans to major in biology or another physical science, he'll need to complete the full calc sequence anyway and it's best to get a head start now. He should do very well in the calc class since he already has more than half the subject matter covered in his Calc AB class.
