Bill > HB05880

This bill proposes to amend title 10 of the general statutes to mandate that all students enrolled in public schools must take and successfully complete a second language course. The legislation aims to ensure that students gain proficiency in a language other than English as part of their standard educational curriculum. By requiring students to pass a second language course, the bill seeks to enhance students' linguistic skills, cultural understanding, and potential future career opportunities. While the bill does not specify which languages would be offered or provide details about the specific implementation, it represents a significant change in educational policy that would apply to all public school students, potentially creating a more globally aware and linguistically diverse student population.
