Each of Us ains Cultural Awareness C'L'LTL'RAL and creative visions of tomorroxy's students are broadened as we study in the fields ot' language. literature, music and art. Language classes acquaint us with the classics of other lands, other times. Current material ot' language countries keeps us aware of other peolmle today. Literature tells the story of man's spiritual growth. In English, Amer- ican and contemporary literature we learn of the richness of the past - man's thoughts, deeds, hopes, dreams. As we study the types of literature, YVe hear the best in music, and many of us learn to play or sing it. Art classes give opportunity for ex- pression in all the media: pencil. crayon, water colors and oils. Tomorrow's citizen has gained a cultural awareness.
