When we talk about training to- morrow ' s world leaders, we are being quite literal in our interpretation. Inherent in the definition of leadership — particularly on a global scale — is the ability and capacity to relate with and understand other peoples and other cultures . What brings this to mind is the issuance of a new federal report by the Pre- sidential Commission on Foreign Language and International Studies. In a Los Angeles Times editorial, it is noted that American capabilities in foreign languages are declining at a time when the country ' s overseas responsibili- ties and involvements are increasing, and that is one of the main reasons for the faltering U. S. economic position in world markets, its chronic trade defi- cits and its foreign policy fiascos. The report places the blame on the educational system, noting that only 15 per- cent of high school students now study another language, and only 8 percent of American colleges require a foreign language as a requirement for admission. There is a moral to this story — one that affects both our graduates of 1980, and those still in school — and the moral is that the leaders of tomorrow cannot afford the luxury of isolation; of viewing the world with tunnel vision. Those of you who leave the Lycee have great opportunities to make your mark in whatever field you wish. It may be business or the arts; it may be science or even politics. But in any of these fields, you will come to appreciate the value of a Lycee education, not only because you are multi-lingual, but also because you are multi-cultural. And with some thirty nationalities represen- ted at Le Lycee, you have inter-related with young men and women represent- ing a great cultural diversity. This opportunity, combined with the quality of education you have received, will stand you in good stead as you are called upon to meet increasingly dif- ficult challenges in the years ahead. We are very proud of our 1980 graduates, and know that they will continue to reflect credit not only upon themselves, but upon Le Lycee. And to be honest, we must share the credit. Our thanks go to our hard working instruc- tors who have trained these students; to the students themselves who have dedicated themselves so thoroughly to their tasks and to the parents and friends of Le Lycee who have continued to support this school through another exci- ting and successful year.

MrJ a i Among all the private schools, the French school, Le Lycee Francais de Los Angeles stands out; Le Lycee Francais has a tint of internationalism as it adopts a French schooling method, with its students being taught under a bi- lingual educational program. Le Lycee Francais de Los Angeles has two campuses where English and French are accounted on an equal footing. The French school is affiliated with the ex- tensive school network of Lycees Francais, which have campuses in 80 major cities throughout the world under the strict command of the National Ministry of French Education. As many as 500 students are now attending the Lycee Francais in West Los Angeles and in Pacific Palisades. Ranging from kindergartners to 12th graders, the students learn from about 50 teachers, some of whom were dispatched by the French Government. Mme Raymond Kabbaz, the school Director and Founder, said her school has been receiving financial support from the French Education Ministry, which, she said, provides school expenses for any needy child of French nationality wherever in the world he or she may be. Mme Kabbaz said that the students at each grade level are grouped into French or American sections . Those in the French section are taught completely in French. She said about 70 percent of the entire school enrolment were children of American nationality. Those with French nationality account for about one half of the remaining 30 percent, who are aliens, the principal explained, and 20 nationalities are represented at Le Lycee Francais. Since we get financial support from the French Government, we have to meet their demands, she said. Among the subjects taught are Philosophy, Psychology, advanced Mathematics, ancient Greek, Latin, fencing and ballet. We also have to follow the regulations of the U.S. authority concerned, she further said, the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) , from whom our school received its accreditation. Mme Kabbaz said all the campuses of the Lycees Francais throughout the world have identical curricula in French, and the students can transfer from one campus to another with actually no harm in continuing their studies. Accordingly, the French school attracts many children of diplomats, members of the film in- dustry and overseas representatives of business firms, who are obliged to frequent- ly change their residences from country to country, said the principal.

Many times people ask the question: Lycee, what does the word mean? Lycee means literally wolfish, pertaining to wolves. Lycee comes from Lyceum in Latin, Lukeion in Greek. In primitive times, the countryside surrounding Athens was infested with wolves. The peasants had a hard time trying to kill them off or drive them away. They finally consulted the god Apollo who answered, through his priests, that the only thing to do was to have more sacrifices to him — it would make him very happy, and the problem would easily be solved. The peasants listened to Apollo and sacrificed a great many animals. Apollo kept his word and did help them as the wolves dis- appeared. It is true that the smell of the sacrifices also helped a lot in driving the wolves away. Such an eminent favor rendered to the Athenian community deserved a sanctuary. It was called the Sanctuary of Apollo-of-the-wolves, or Lukeion; it was a very charming place, built on the eastern bank of the Ilissos; there was a pleasant little stream which ran a few hundred yards East of the Acropolis and was shaded by beautiful trees. The Athenians loved it and built a gymnasium next to it. They adorned it with sculptures, statues, fountains and plane trees. It became one of the most beautiful sites in the citv. The gymnasium was a school with a strong accent on academics — humanities and philosophy. Gymnasium is the name still used in Germany today for some secon- dary schools. The philosopher Aristotle in 335 B.C. established his school on the premises of the Gymnasium and taught there for about twelve years, from age 49 to 62. Be- fore that time he had been a pupil of Plato for 20 years and then travelled ex- tensively. Teaching in a gymnasium was a very elegant thing to do... and still is, Before him, Plato had taught in another gymasium called the Garden of Akademos, the Academy, about a mile and a half Ilorth-West of the Acropolis. Since Aristotle was in the habit of teaching while walking along a path or promenade called the Peripateia, his school at the Lyceum becam.e known as the Peripatetic School. During his lifetime, the school was organized with meals taken in common, and equipped with a library which contained many maps. The great bulk of the ex- tant works of Aristotle is made of the lectures which he delivered at the Lyceum. During the greek revival at the end of the XVIIIth century, the word Lycee became fashionable. It is therefore not surprising that the name has been firmly established in the organization of the Imperial Napoleonic system of education about 200 years ago, which is our French public school system today. And this is how we come from the wolves through Apollo, his temple, his gardens, his gymnasium and Aristotle to California, its people, and furthermore, to a charming hill with its gardens, its beautiful palm trees, its fish pond in lieu of the lovely little stream in the outskirts of Athens; the well-known hill, with its fine teachers and pupils, its fine gymnasium is proudly named by its founders, LE LYCEE FRANCAIS DE LOS ANGELES.

The international, bilingual school first opened its doors in 1964-65 in Be- verly Hills, mo ' ing to the Overland Avenue campus in the late 60s. Considering the ups and downs in private education over the years, the sustained growth of Le Lycee represents a considerable accom- plishment, and an accomplishment of which we can all be proud, noted Lycee president and founder. Dr. Ravmond Kabbaz. It points out — most dramatical- ly — that in an era of declining stan- dards of public education, that there is a very real need for the type of traditional education embodied by Le Lycee. Certainly this is borne out by the quality and caliber of Lycee graduates over the years, and their accomplishments in man - fields throughout the world. Dr. Kabbaz specifically praised the dedication and enthusiasm of the Lycee family over the past 15 years — a combination of parents, students, staff, consular officials and community friends of Le Lycee — which have all played key roles in nurturing the growth of the school. Echoing these same thoughts. Doctor Esther Kabbaz — director and founder — noted that after 15 years, there had been a number of changes at Le Lycee, allowing the school to keep attuned to the cur- rent realities of life. The world as we know it in 1979 is totally different than it was in 1964, she observed, in that societ- al changes have required young men and women to be far more sophisticated and knowledgeable than ever before. Since 1964, we have collectively experienced Vietnam, Watergate, a drastically changed economic socie- On a clear day, you can see forever. Or at least as far as dozLmtoioi Los Angeles!

If we correct- ly assume that today ' s high school graduates represent the internation- al leadership of the next century, there is even more reason to stress the value of good education for these young people. Le Lycee began the 1979-80 school year with another record en- rollment, and a student body repre- senting nearly 30 nationalities. Dr. R. Kabbaz noted that there were substantial changes at the Overland campus this year, includ- ing a great many new instructors, both American and French, teaching both existing and new courses. He also noted that the en- tire school was eagerly anticipating the completion of the new Student Activity Center, which should be ready for full operation by January. Sign of Old Age? An Alumni Association! It had to come sooner or later, but Le Lycee is about to start an alumni association to keep track of all those Lycee graduates out there since 1965 — the first official graduating class. The biggest problem is getting started, and this is where we need your help. If you are an alumni of Le Lycee — or have a son, daughter or friend who is one — we need to know. We ' re trying to track down where our graduates have gone, what they ' re doing, where they ' re living (so we can develop an alumni mailing list) and what accomplish- I ments they ' ve chalked up since | leaving school. Anyone who wants to serve as class secretary for such and such a year — and in doing so, plav Sherlock Holmes to track down the rest of your fellow gradu- ates — will be most welcome. Drop a line to the Lycee Alumni Association, 3261 Overland Ave- nue, Los Angeles, CA 90034. And don ' t forget, we ' d also like to have some current photos of our past graduates for future publication. We plan to do a wrap-up story on alumni activities in our next publi- cation in the spring. So keep those cards and letters coming, folks! Editorial ' 7 Told You So Acamini ' : to a recent news story, Anicnams arc bccomnis more ami wore disenchanted with tlie quality of education that public schools are providing. As case in vomt, a PTA group in the niidivcst recently took issue with the hut education is changing ' excuses and asked if the old loays weren t better. To prove their point, nearly 40 parents of high school students agreed to take the same basic reading and math skill tests that their ozvn sons and daughters were taking, despite the caution that things are different nowadays, and you just won ' t be able to understand. _, . ,, , Perhaps you ' ve already guessed the outcome. As it turned out, he f - ' ' - zvho were all twenty or more years out of high school - did stgmficautly better m both math and ' reading than did their children. Interestingly, the disparity was far ' greater in reading than in math. And the parents, even moreconceimed than ever about what was being taught their kids, justifiably said I told you ' ' w n c we ' re somewhat shocked at all of tins, were also slightly amused in that It reinforces what Le Lycee has been saying for a long time m defense of the more traditional and disciplined philosophy of education In order to learn, children must be immersed m knowledge, be challenged to use rational processes and be taught how to think. Thinking, like swimming and riding a bicycle - ts a basic skill never lost, once learned. It can go rusty (a. Im sure those parents zvho took the tests loere also amazed at how much they d forgotten), but the issue is the same. Provide the student with the proper tools, and there is no limiting zvhat can be accomplished. Deny the student those basic tools - offer the non-es- cntial and hop that television zvill fill in the gaps - and you have disaster. And zcith the challenges this ivorld faces in the decades ahead, ive must have new leaders with basic ' ' smarts, if ive are to succeed as a ivorld society. We have to admire the courage of those muTwestern parents to serve as guinea f)! s. And noiv ive can all say I told you so ' News From Here There . . . We hope vou like the entirely new look and style of Lc Monde dit lyccc — quite literally, the world of the Lycee. While our fall issue is in a newsletter format, our spring issue will be in a magazine format! As part of this new publication, we ' re pleased to announce the first annual Lycee student photo con- test, with winners to be published in the spring issue of Lc Woiuic dii Lycee. The rules are simple, and we urge all students to enter their best photos. The only requirement is that it be a black and white print — no color or transparencies, please, as we can ' t do them |ustice unless we print in color. Any size print is fine, and the absolute deadline is januarv 13th. We will print 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners, and even have some prizes for top winners (not to mention a photo of the school ' s top student photo- grapher!). Please get your prints to the administration office as soon as vou can, and make sure your name is printed lightlv (so you don ' t dam- age the print) on the back of each entry. You can enter as many photos as -ou wish. And if you ' re not into photogra- phy, but would like to be, be sure to read the story on next year ' s special summer programs in this issue — there ' s a class in beginning photo- graphy! In case vou haven ' t heard. Dr. Le Lycee Awarded Full Accreditation Ihe Western Association of Schools and Colleges has informed Le Lycee that the school has once again won full accreditation under association standards. The school was the subject of in- tense inspection last February, by a three-man visitation committee, which met with school administra- tors, the instructional staff, stu- dents and other segments of the school. This is the third consecutive accreditation by the prestigious educational association and reflects favorably on the institution, its staff and student body. Accreditation is a great asset to Le Lycee and its stu- dents. We ' re very pleased at the action of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges in granting accreditation once again, noted Dr. Raymond Kabbaz, but we have to recognize that the purpose of accre- ditation is not only to recognize quality endeavors, but also to con- tinually strive for improvement. The visitation team provided us with a number of valid ideas to assist us in future years, and we feel that these will be of great value in making the quality of education at Le Lycee even better. We should all feel quite proud about this accreditation, and our thanks go to all at Le Lycee who assisted us, and met with the visita- tion committee. Edwin Girard is starting a theater workshop in both English and French for a planned spring produc- tion. Dr. Girard holds a doctorate in theater arts from the Sorbonne, specializing in acting, stage move- ment, music and dance. He has had five years professional experience in Paris, Copenhagen, Brussels and Rome and is the only America n- born actor who has performed with the Comedie Francaise! It may only be No ember, but work is ' already underway on the 1980 Lycee yearbook. This is a pro- ject that welcomes assistance from everyone — students and parents alike. If you have articles, stories, poetry, photographs, etc., please contact M. Michel Delacroix, vice principal.

The three story Class A brick and steel building — under construction for most of 1979 — will house a great many amenities and new faci- lities for Lycee students, and will be a major step forward. Included in the building will be the new Lycee library, a giant leap forward from the existing facility which has served Lycee students for so many years. Few students are aware of the tremendous library col- lection accumulated in recent years — a collection that now totals more than 27,500 titles. Due to lack ot space, the current library has been able to display only a fraction of the Lycee ' s books, and the new facility (see diagram) will offer a spacious and bright facility with extensive bookshelves, work and study tables, a periodical section and a central desk seen in the upper right corner of the floorplan. Library acquisitions have soared in the past five years, with more than 20,000 new books added since 1974. By 1984, the library goal is 32,000 books, plus a greatly ex- panded collection of periodicals, re- cords, audio tapes, video tapes and films. The 9,000 square foot, $1.5 mil- lion dollar facility will also house an audio-visual center; music practice rooms; locker rotims and showers supporting the physical education and sports programs; convertible multi-purpose rooms in support of the academic program and a roof- top student lunch patio which com- mands views to downtown Los Angeles.

Perhaps the very essence of the unique nature of American Democracy may be found in the deceptively innocuous Ninth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, Its words have ultimately been understood to be a tribute to the intelligence of future generations of Americans. The founding fathers of our nation framed the language of this amendment in such a way as to permit, and in fact, encourage us to make the Constitution an eternally useful and living thing. The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people. Thus, in one short sentence, the framers of the Bill of Rights provided for the wonders of a future they could not have reasonably foreseen. These visionaries exhibited their confidence in us even further by bestowing upon us the most valuable right of all, the privilege of free thought. As the centuries have passed, Americans have flourished and prospered in an increasingly complex world beset by ever more menacing problems and constant new challenges to our role as free men and women. We have survived as a free people despite tyrannies surrounding us. The Ninth Amendment has allowed us the luxury of adapting to new circum- stances. It has required our judiciary and legislative bodies to determine which rights we possess when confronted by the new problems often accom- panying changing times. Today, the airlanes in which we fly, and the air waves which carry our communi- cations are protected and regulated. Americans demand and are granted such unforeseen rights as a health environment and free trade unions. The language of the Ninth Amendment has been the legal basis for us to enjoy contemporary rights , QUATRIEME A (de gauche droite) Premier rang: Marc Le Renard, Roya Ansary, Ali Key, Daniela Kaufmann, Dorine Gaspari-Apcarian, Second Rang: Samira Kermani, Ninette S.
