  16. What about a LANGUAGE? ~ great idea! BUT is a 2 nd language required ?? For graduation? NO For trades or vocational programs? NO For university entrance? … maybe It depends on if you go straight to university from high school, the program you choose, & the university/college you attend. It’s a good idea to keep your options open!
