Provide Variety in the Language Department In Speech class, which is taught by Mrs. Geneva Wickens, students learn how to speak properly. Among other things they increase their vocabulary and understanding of words. They are subject to the task of speaking before an audience; and find that it isn’t so embarrassing after all. All in all, the language department of Hauser High School is progressing more each year. Thanks to the new language labs, students are motivated to enjoy their elective language. Students also find that taking a foreign language is a great help in studying their own language English. The English courses offered at Hauser haven’t changed much during the years but students find that more and more composition work is being done. Vocabulary is stressed more, which helps the students increase their word power. I’LL NEVER GET THROUGH! sigh Dorothy Southern as she labors over a senior English report.
