dc.description.abstract	In Green Bay, Wisconsin, foreign language in the elementary schools or FLES programs are offered in French, German and Spanish. An influx of Mexican and Central American immigrants to the Midwest has launched Spanish into common usage in the Green Bay business community. This study surveyed students and teachers of Spanish in grades 3-12 at public schools in Green Bay. Business professionals from the Green Bay area were interviewed to determine if bilingual applicants were viewed more favorably than monolinguists.	en
