FOREIGN LA NG UA GE Cultural studies held in language classes Understanding people begi'ns with understanding their language. Recognizing this basic idea, Kennedy's language department strives to integrate language and cultural studies. The language teachers begin by teaching students to speak and listen, then to read, and finally to write. The highlights of this year's language department include Mr. Gottlieb's after-school programs in Italian and in French grammar.

I .Q My , BUSINESS One-semester courses prove highly popular Therefs been a colorful change in Kennedy's Business Department, one of the more progressive teams here. Students have the opportunity to choose from seven, one-semester courses, including Busi- ness Law which has been introduced for the first time this year. One of the outstanding accomplish- ments of the department is the establishment of a library which exclusively serves Business. Other addi- tions include the Business aide, Mrs. Swift, and two boys enrolled in Shorthand. These unique improve- ments superbly illustrate the Kennedy concept.
