SPANISH Mrs. Rose Berra-- B. A. , University of Arizona. Mrs. Ber- ra's hobbies are gardening, knitting and reading. She sponsors F. T.A, and teaches Spanish and English. The Spanish I class contained six pup - pils who received much individual atten- tion and thus learned the conjugation and vocabulary of the language much more easily than if the class had been larger. No second year classes were taught. Spanish classes this year were only offered to juniors and seniors. Enjoying the singing of songs and learn- ing of poetry, the pupils were pleased with their year of a foreign language. College prep students learn foreign tongue. Armida Varela, Rebecca Pacheco, Valla Dee Jack, and Virginia Abell listen as Mrs.Berra converses with them in Spanish.
