Bilingual is best bet Is a second language really important in today’s world? This year the two language teachers, Mrs. Shirley Lamb and Mrs. Joanne Kro-odsma, made this topic the main theme in their classes. There are many jobs that require a second language and other jobs where being able to speak another language is definetely an asset. Students learned that in today’s society, foreign communications in business depend on the knowledge of two or more languages. Some students will persue careers which will need further education in the language they took in high school, but some will not. Either way, the teachers tried to stress the benefits of taking French or Spanish. Ezra Pound once said,“The sum of human wisdom is not contained in any one language.” Senior Jenny Rice reads one of the required books that is written in French while lounging in the library. Senior Troy Mathew strains to comprehend every word in Mrs. Joanne Kroodsma's Spanish class. 28
