Music Sustams Cultural Appreciation . . . Glendale's music department tries to fulfill a three-fold purpose: to meet the needs of the consumer, the per- former, and the person possessing particular creative ability. The music program is directed primarily toward the musical needs of all students. Members of the various organizations gain a better understanding and appreciation of other people and their cultures by listening to and performing their music. As a medium of musical expression, the musical groups are an excellent means for providing a satisfying and enriching musical experience to students in the life of the school and community. The department hopes that the student will gain a musical experience, whether it be through personal partici- pation in performance or as an active listener and admirer of musical accomplishment. ?

Students For Global Excursions. -.3900 With the number of Americans abroad increasing daily, it is becoming more of a necessity to be able to speak some foreign language. The Foreign Language Department at Glendale tries to meet this need by enabling students to understand languages of peoples of foreign countries. Three years of French and Latin are available and four years of Spanish, to those who wish to further their knowledge of various nations and their languages. Many aids are used in teaching these classes, including films with the narration entirely in the language being studied by the class, and tape-recorders so that the students' may listen to their own pronunciation. Vast opportunities are open to people in foreign countries who can speak the language. The language strives to help students take advantage of these oppor- tunities.
