Not knowing C/C++ and Java is ridiculous. Working with either of those for a few semester gives them the ability to teach themselves Python or Rust or whatever. Java is C#/OOP (many jobs want this), and C is the underlying basis for Python and similar to Rust/Go.

Make an elective course where they do 2 weeks of Rust, Go, Python, Haskell, etc and learn about languages and compilers.
