Latin was a new class added to the curriculum this year and was taught by Mrs. Klein-Ahlbrandt. She also teach- es Spanish and French at neighboring schools. Some- times during class when people were having a hard time. Mrs. Ahlbrandt would ask her assistant, Brian LaReau, to make things clearer to his peers. Brian seemed to have caught on to the basis of Latin quicker than most stu- dents. This year ' s Spanish class was highlighted by a mass said in Spanish by Fr. Benno of St. Boniface. The mass was offered in celebration of the Feast of Our Lady of Guadeloupe. The Spanish III class had advanced in the learning of Spanish and learned how to speak using the fundamentals learned the previous two years. Spanish III also prepared a meal of arroz con polio, chicken with rice) for the students in Spanish I II. All of the Spanish classes enjoyed the knowledge given to them by Robert Biggs, a foreign exchange student from Chile. The French students, taught by Ms. Kneisley, again worked at the Feast of the Hunters Moon. They sold potato soup that they made themselves. During class time, the students were drilled by Ms. Kneisley who used flash cards to help the students learn pronunciation and the spelling of French words. Ms. Kneisley many times used her experiences of living in France to help the stu- dents understand the context of the French language. For foreign students, learning a language can be interest- ing and at the same time entertaining. You never know when someone might tap you on the shoulder and say Parlez Vous Francais?
