Due to low budgeting, Westwood will remove one of its language programs next school year. The Chinese class will be leaving Next school year, and we have no idea when it’ll be back at Westwood High School. Last school year, they announced that they would remove this class next year. And it happened that the course registration we were given was removed, Leaving only Spanish and French for next year’s class. But why this class, I guess that it’s probably not mostly the main language subject taught in average

What will happen next?

Students who are looking forward to learning a language would apply to a different language class such as French or Spanish if they are looking to go to a University or a college. Students who still want to learn Chinese would either self-study the language or apply to language learning programs outside of school, or maybe Dual enrollment if they let you.

I’m a student who is currently taking a Chinese Level 2 class and I’m going to miss this class because I spoke to some friends and met people who used to take Chinese since 2023. Since they removed the language, I’m going to take French next school year.
