The goal of the Ann Arbor Public Schools 世界语言 program is to prepare all students to be linguistically and culturally competent in langu年龄s other than English.  Ann Arbor Public Schools is proud to offer 7 langu年龄s, including:  American Sign Langu年龄, Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Latin, and Spanish. 在安娜堡, we believe the ability to communicate in a culturally appropriate manner with speakers of other langu年龄s is a key to success in the increasingly diverse global community of the 21^st 世纪. As students develop proficiency in world langu年龄s and, a parallel appreciation of the underlying values and beliefs of other cultures, they develop the understandings and skills that are essential to meaningful communication around the world.
