Language The need for learning foreign languages and being able to speak them fluently is greater than ever before in our country's history since today Americans live, work, and travel in every country of the world. Our Language Department offers two, and upon occasion three, years of instruction in Latin, French, and Spanish. The importance of Latin lies in the fact that it is the basis of several languages. For this reason the study of Latin facili- tates the learning of English and the Ro- mance languages. Statistics show that approximately one of every four teen-age Americans will spend some time overseas. Since a large portion of the peoples of Europe and Africa speak French, one can readily see the desir- ability of pursuing a course in French.

A In all of their work, art students strive to express themselves in an interesting and original manner, from molding a shapeless lump of clay into a graceful figurine, to converting a blank canvas into a colorful painting. Annually, a limited number of pieces of art work are entered in local and national contests, and often awards accompany them on their return. Functioning as the school advertising department, the Art Department provides colorful and cleverly designed posters to remind everyone of all school events. In addition to freshman art, a required course, there are three years of advanced art, which may be elected by any interested student who can work the courses into his curriculum. Through the use of action line drawings of a llve model Art ll students work at perfecting their skill in drawing the human figure.
