Students are offered courses in six languages: French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Latin, and Spanish. In addition to regular and advanced levels, the department also offers Advanced Placement courses in Spanish, French, and German. Learning is aided and supplemented in several ways. In order to acquaint students with different pronunciations, teachers quite often exchange classes for several days. Members of the department have accompanied interested students to Spain and Italy during spring vacations. International House, the foreign study center, is located at the end of the 200 corridor and is open every period to all students for enrichment and remedial work. In a world where communication is indispensable and important, the foreign language department plays a key role. 28

Mathematics Under the leadership of Mr. Daniel Jankelunas, the Math Department of Paramus High School accommo¬ dates the needs and abilities of all students. Course offer¬ ings range from three semester Algebra and Geometry for the student who requires more time to understand the elements of mathematics, to advanced levels in these sub¬ jects for the student who functions best at a more rapid pace. Students involved in work study programs have been engaged in a compensatory educational program for mathematics which tends to strengthen their basic skills in this subject. Two part time teachers and an aide assist in this program. Paramus High School’s Math Study Center provides students with a place where they can do their homework, receive extra help, do research, or utilize and learn more about the computer terminal, which is housed there. Mr. Jankelunas urges students to use the center and its re¬ sources so that they may get the most out of their high school mathematics education. Mr. Daniel T.
