<p>SevenDaughter did MMLA summer of seventh grade and I think that’s one of the main reasons she’ll be able to fulfill her language requirement in French her Soph year (SAS has a “two credits or through the third level, whichever is more advanced” language requirement). Her before and after recordings were eye opening and speak to the value of immersion.</p>
<p>I’m torn on how to advise my daughter on her language track for her Junior/Senior years. She could either get into French lit/philosophy or do the Latin + Greek thing. I think her current thinking is at the very least to do 4 years of Latin.</p>
<p>Keep in mind that, depending on the school, doing an extra language means having one less block in the schedule for electives…which can be tough when your friends are taking all sorts of interesting niche classes.</p>
