THESE ARE OUR INSTRUCTORS TI-IE FOREIGN LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT offers courses in the study of Latin, French, and Spanish. The history, literature, and general culture of the people is examined as well as the technical aspects of the language itself. Understanding the way of life and the problems of the peoples whose language we wish to speak is the ultimate aim of the Foreign Language Department. EVERY YEAR AT CHRISTMAS TIME the halls of Lake Os- wego High School ring with the tunes of our familiar Christmas Carols, sung in Latin, French, or Spanish. Mrs. West's first period Latin class heralded Christmas with the singing of Adesti Fideles The cond period was serenaded by Mrs. Brownfs F re ch s 'while Mrs period. On the same day the Foreign Language De- partment had its Christmas party. A TRADITIONAL EVENT carried on in our high school is the Latin dinner. This is the biggest event of the year for all Latin students. This is the time when they dress in the togas of ancient Rome. The students reclined a la Rome and partook of a fine Roman-type dinner. A WEALTH OF EXPERIENCE is shared when the different language classes put on plays for one another in the tongue they are learning to speak. These plays are usu- ally written by the students themselves and are first given in English and then the foreign language. Students of foreign languages have learned the education is a broad- ening experience and the sharing of culture of many people.

ALTHOUGH EACH SCHOOL DAY IS A BUSY ONE FOP MR. BROAD, the spring holds countless added responsibilities. Scheduling is never an easy job, but the promised in- crease in the Student Body roster demands an iron-clad schedule and careful placement of each student. Through his understanding of school management and the problems of high school students, he has contributed much to the successful operation of the school. As a result of the new attendance system employed this year, Mr. Broad reports that school attendance is better than ever. A MAN EVERY STUDENT KNOWS IS MR. Plzzo. He has done a superior job as advisor to the Student Senate and MR. RICHARD PIZZO Director of student affairs Student Cabinet. Among his many duties, the responsi- bility of scheduling the many student activities rest on the shoulders of Mr. Pizzo.

IN KEEPING WITH THE NATIONAL TREND which is ex- periencing a growing need for trained scientists and technicians, the Science Department of L.O.H.S. is striving to improve its curriculum. At the end of five years we can boast a superior science and mathematics program which offers courses in general science, physical science, biology, chemistry, physics, and natural history. At Lake Oswego we have two distinct courses of study in mathematics. One is planned for the student who aims to continue his study of science at college, and the other is geared for the student who plans to go to work upon graduation or hopes to follow a business course in college rather than one of a scientific nature. The mathe- matics courses we ofIer include algebra 1-2, algebra 3-4, geometry Cplanc and solidl, general mathematics, con- sumers' mathematics and advanced unified mathematics. MRS.
