West Career and Technical Academy is composed of people of different races, colors and ethnicities that speak a variety of languages. However, ironically, the only language we can study here at WCTA is Spanish. Our school is completely ignoring the different types of languages and cultures that can be offered at a high school, and deciding to only shine light on one.
The knowledge of different languages is becoming more and more important the further we advance in the 21st century. Most colleges require at least two years of foreign language for applicants to even be accepted, which is why the student body of WCTA has decided to make a change. Every signature is bringing us one step close to offering a variety of languages, and improving our chances for success.

The feedback from students proves that we are tired of only having one option for language study. Email your department head today and tell them we need more diverse curriculum choices.

The administration is finally taking notice because of your steady commitment to this cause. Post this link on your Facebook today and email the principal to demand they expand the language curriculum.
