Richards Cluster worked hard to prepare their students for future life in many ways. Both college-bound students and those who planned on entering the business world found the varied topics and information offered by the English courses not only helpful but very en- riching. Aside from the usual tutelage in English grammar, the students were given a chance to ex- plore the many forms of literature, both by reading and by doing their own composing. sw' y i Diane Murray played the part of the second witch in Shukespeare's Macbeth during Mrs. Rid- derholf's 2nd period Prep English class.

Richards Cluster offered a foreign language curriculum consisting of five languages: French, German, Spanish, Latin, and the newly-added Russian. The language students were encouraged to take the full four-year program in a language to give them more fluency in speaking and reading. In beginning courses, teachers stressed conversation more than anything else. Tape recorders were used in a new language laboratory to show the students their mistakes and their achievements. Languages played an important part in our preparation for college. However, a language could be taken from one to four years, depending on the student's interest in it. Not only the language was taught, but also its history and some of its literature were brought into the course to make it more appealing. Besides the usual courses taken in the classroom, the For- eign Language Departments offered clubs in which interested students participated. Foreign languages developed linguistic Latin l students Peter Brundage, Collen Clarke, and Mary Kirinich work on verb coniugations. 102 UIQ 5 svn A colorful poster provides the background for a Spanish conversation between Don Monahan, Robert Bennett, and Mary Ann Berinti, Mrs. Otten explains a difficult idiom to Nicholas Ritter, Dianne Dado, Terry Kevin P1uI Romin, and Ken Clark, 1 i 4 i i i
