By 2050, Hispanic children as a percentage of the population are expected to grow to 39, up from 24 in 2011. The percentage of children who are Hispanic has increased faster than that of any other racial or ethnic group.

Because of these reasons, it would be most appropriate for Spanish to be selected as the required foreign language. Speaking French, German, or Latin would not be as practical as being able to speak Spanish.
