  • Subject-Verb Agreement: 'Is' vs. 'Are' in School Schedules
    The correct sentence is:

    "Is foreign language or computer science available fifth hour at our school?"

    Here's why:

    * Subject-verb agreement: The subject of the sentence is "foreign language or computer science," which is a singular subject even though it contains two options. Therefore, the verb needs to be singular, "is."

    * "Is" vs. "are": "Are" would be used if the subject were plural.
