Language teachers tried to include a background of foreign culture in class. Mrs. Klein Russell for example cooked Mexican food and allowed the students to sample it, Mrs. Calvert, the new French and Spanish teacher, planned a trip to Quebec, hoping that the students would use as much French as possible.
