Foreign anguages Spanish and French classes have attracted many students at Greenwood this year. This year's language program not only strengthened students in correct usage of the languages spoken but also acquainted them with the people themselves. This was accom- plished through films, outside reading, lec- tures, and a language laboratory. Students participating in the language pro- gram unanimously agreed that their hard study and work throughout the year was well worth the effort. 30 ABOVE RIGHT: Spanish students listen intently as they learn to take dictation.
