schools with interesting foreign language programs

We are taking a look at our foreign language program, pre-kindergarten
through 12th. Currently we offer a little Spanish in the Lower School,
begin formal study of French or Spanish in the sixth grade, require a year
of Latin in eighth grade, and offer Latin, Spanish, French, and Mandarin in
Upper School.

I would be interested in hearing from schools, particularly those with pre-K
(or K) through 12th or lower and middle schools, about things that you are
doing, especially if you introduce formal study early or offer other
languages at any level.

Thanks.
