A Third of Our Students Study to Be Bi-lingual Tacos! Paris! Bullfights and French pastries combined with the phrases 4como estas? and ‘comment allez yous?’ were the first things some people thought of when Spanish or French were mentioned. These ideas reflected fantasy not reality. Reality recognized that Encinal was down to two foreign languages, four teachers, and 418 students. In other words, one-third of the stu- dents attempted to be bi-lingual in Spanish or French. Two dozen students filled the fourth year classrooms of both languages. In fourth year French, the best part of the year was viewing slides of France by other students. The best part of fourth year Spanish was, believe it or not, Fri- day Bingo. While adults frequented church-run Bingo to win money, the Friday prize, at school, was candy.

Title | Program New Addition in Math Department A new math program referred to as Title | was introduced. It aided students who were computing below grade level. The Federal Government funded the program with a whopping $16,335. Mary Ellis, the program coordinator, hoped the funds would be used to hire a new teacher. She also hoped that the student’s grade average would be raised and they would gain confidence in their ability to manipulate math. A wide selection of Math courses at E.H.S. included Algebra | and II, Geom- etry, Consumer Math, and Math Analy- sis. Accounting was also available to students through the Business Depart- ment.
