AB 2319 California Assembly · 2017-2018 Regular Session

Foreign language education: world language.

Summary

Existing law refers to the study of a language other than English by pupils as the study of a foreign language. Existing law refers to the term "foreign language" in various provisions of the Education Code. This bill would delete references in the Education Code to the term "foreign language" and would instead substitute the term "world language." The bill would provide that the bill shall not be construed to require local educational agencies to make modifications to their language programs. The bill would also make nonsubstantive changes. This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 60119 of the Education Code proposed by SB 816 to be operative only if this bill and SB 816 are enacted and this bill is enacted last.
