A six-month study of world language course offerings in grades 7-12 has resulted in no curriculum expansion for now. A task force appointned by the ISD 831 School Board last spring has concluded that the district continue with its current offerings of French, German and Spanish. The group also recommended that any decision to add a new foreign language should be considered in a year after the task force has reconvened to further explore the topic. The group concluded that the district has a “robust” world language program and if an additional language is added, it should be an Asian language to complement the European languages now offered.
