The Spanish language is the second most spoken in the United States of America. While English will always be one of the leading languages, it will not always be the first spoken.
When the majority of the school population is Hispanic, the need for teachers and administrators who speak Spanish becomes apparent. Generally, born-free Americans don’t care to be bilingual. Now is the time to think things through correctly. We must motivate our children not only to be bilingual but also to learn a music instrument. That is truly the “home of the brave.”
We sometimes put exaggerated emphasis on reading, writing and arithmetic. It is time to give equal importance to the art of learning another language and being musically talented. These two arts will facilitate the books read, compositions written and bank accounts regulated.
