Classic Classics: ittazurek, frmclts, Hill Department this year was to prepare for this new state requirement. Another goal of the Latin Department was to prepare students for competition at the Latin club convention held annually. This year the convention will be held March 17-19 in Alexandria, La. Competitions in Latin history, mythology, grammer, and oratory skills will take place between Latin The Latin Department has bloomed over the past four years. In 1983, when Dr. Nill first came to Episcopal, the Latin program was almost nonex-istant. It currently has over 100 students, most of which are in the middle school. Beginning next year, all seventh graders will be required to take a full year of Latin. One of the goals for the Latin clubs from all over. An awards ceremony, banquet, and sports day will also he part of the fun. Dr. Nill, head of the Latin Dept, enjoys teaching Latin because of the excitement of seeing students cope with a kind of language they've never seen before. It contradicts many of the things they've learned in English class such as the structure of a sentence. He finds that influencing students into memorizing the forms and grammer is one of the most challenging areas of his work. Mr. Ted Mazurek and newcomer Mr. Karl Frerichs, also Latin teachers, share the same goals as Dr. Nill.

most about Episcopal? hmmm, the students, said Mrs. Bonner, their enthusiasm has made my job interesting through the years. Last year Episcopal built its first theater. Many people credit this to Mrs. Bonner. It wasn't my doing, said Bonner, I think folks realized we were we were serious; they realized what we could do. Mis. Bonner credits the building of the theater to people seeing that the time was right. We were doing about four shows a year in the chapel, people finally said We better give them a place to play. Will Mrs. Bonner be missed? Most definitely, said Dana Young. Not only is Mrs. Bonner responsible for every show done at Episcopal, she also teaches drama, speech, debate, and Shakespeare. Let make this the best show ever!’’ Mrs. Bonner If th-.ne right eye offend thee pluck it out? Mr. Brown ya’ll be quiet, we’ve got to get through this. Mr Calasso Trust me. I'm your teacher.

To teach the French and Spanish language; to expose students to the culture of the French and Spanish, to inform them of the contributions made by French and Spanish writers, painters, scientists, and musicians, said Madame Madeline Campbell. We are achieving our goals - judging by the discussions in class and our successful results in district and state competition, said Mrs. Drott. This year the departments are using some special ways to keep students interested. The upper school Spanish classes got to see Raiders of the Lost Ark in Spanish. The French Classes have been watching current material from French channel 2 TV in Paris. Game shows are another class pleaser. For review, Win, Lose, or Draw and Wheel of Fortune are played.
