Bilingual kids will have more success

Ontarioville Elementary School should teach Spanish as a second language to students who do not speak it. I believe it is essential to teach Spanish to students who are non-Spanish speakers because this opportunity will benefit them in the future.

In approximately 10 years, by the time elementary students are out of college; the Hispanic population will be more than before and non-Spanish speakers will not be able to communicate with Spanish speakers. If students are taught Spanish in their elementary schools, it will make students' lives easier when they travel to places where the primary language is Spanish.

If students are bilingual, it will be easier for them to find a job. Since many jobs are in demand for bilingual employees. It is an excellent idea to teach Spanish to elementary students because this will benefit them in the long run.
