You took Spanish? So did I. I'm not sure about the public
schools in NYC because I went to Maryland public schools, and in the ones I went
to (and also most around the same area) Foriegn language was a required
class. I only went to college in NY.
In NY, it was probably unique. I don't think there are public schools
(if so, a few) that require that many years.

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.
