ENGLISH Fascinating, intricate, and distinct . . . language is the difference between man and the lower ani- mals. Through language, bridges and skyscrapers are built, medicines discovered, and all life con- tinued. Man calls upon it to aid him in his quest for knowledge. He employs it as an implement to build and create, but sometimes he wields it as a weapon of destruction. English has many phases, all of which are thoroughly covered by these teachers. Grammar, which must be mastered to understand the basic principles of English, is stressed throughout the year. Appreciation and familiarization of the Great Works' of literature enriches our cultural education. Due to our large student body, our school also offers English by television. These classes have a half-hour program on television and a daily follow- up by the classroom teacher. Honors English is taken by students in the tenth through the eleventh grades, These courses give to our students a deeper meaning of our English heri- tage. The English teachers pictured below are: Mr. Murray, Mrs. Hicks, Miss Sunkel, Mr. Marin, Miss Barry, Miss XVhelp- 'W'-X-...

FOREIGN LA GUA GE Se habla Espanol! On parle Francais! Man spricht Deutsch! l'll'B0l'HM lTll- TYCCKM VVe speak many languages. All of them are the keys to universal friendship. VVithout language we couldn't meet new people or make new friends. Language spans the distance between countries and strengthens the bonds between them. North Miamians, realizing the value of a World at peace, have incorporated into our curriculum a fascinating and intensive foreign language program. The curriculum includes four years of the language of our Latin American neighbors, four years of French, four years of Latin, three years of German, and two years of the language most recently of- fered, Russian. In an attempt to promote friendship, North Miami Senior High participates in the American Field Service Program. Annually our students raise money to send a North Miami student to a foreign country. Since orr program originated in 1957, we have sent students to Turkey, Germany, and Denmark. Our school has been visited by students from Holland, Denmark, Germany, and Japan. Capable is the word for our foreign language instructors: Mrs. Whelpton, Mrs. Mitchell, Mrs. Atwood, Mrs. Doran, Mrs. Nicholas, Mrs. Beal, Mrs. Steinberg, Miss Kennedy, 'lmlkyv , 37'P:f 6' ,,. ri. fu r v iv H F ' ' . f f i I A ' reagirgg 'nigga l W r wwf r r' .1 Q. gal' If -f J ' . , fl' it fiffi 1 -A .K V ,755-r5.5 , 3. tp, , 1 Miss students an QLAUW Cback rowj Mr. MacDonald, r.
