Long-awaited language lab After three months of impatient wait¬ ing, Groveton High School ' s new langu¬ age laboratory was finally completed. This important addition to the Foreign Language department was one of the two installed by the School Board in Fairfax County. It has been invaluable in the oral teaching methods stressed. A $15,000 project, it has been used by all the 500 students enrolled in the courses offered by this department. Spanish I -1V and French I -1V are the Language Classes that have had the opportunity to benefit from the lab.
