Mrs. Connolly: Latin Teachers .yi , Never Die: They Just Decline As a teacher at Air Academy for 10 years, Mrs. Harriett Connolly has shared her special talents with many students. Mrs. Connolly taught English and Latin and was also the spon- sor of the Latin Club, a lost lan- guage to many, but not to her. I once had a student who said, 'English is only Latin in dis- guise.' l think that's true. Sixty percent of our language comes from Latin. Mrs. Connolly became interest- ed in Latin as a freshman in high 941 Faculty school. I've always loved words. l never even though about not taking Latin l. Latin helps in understanding English vocabulary and gram- mar, she explained, and Latin is a fine mental exercise. 1981-82 marked the schooI's 25th anniversary, but it also marked Mrs. ConnolIy's last year teaching. Celebrating Air Acade- my's special silver anniversary was fitting for this teacher's last year, since Mrs. Connolly was one of the best. Caesar Augustus is Mrs. Harriett Connol- ly's pride and joy as she makes sure the emperor's headpiece is on his head cor- rectly Ktopl. During a class, Mrs. Harriet Connolly explains the do's and don'ts of Latin Cabovej.
