Language Department Gains Two Teachers Two new teachers ioined the language staff. They were Mrs. Shirley Bayard and Dr. Thomas Cooper. Mrs. Bayard, a native of Haiti, became a citizen of the United States a little over a year ago. She decided to become a U.S. citizen because, While I was at college in New Hampshire, l realized what a powerful nation this country is. I believe the system of government here and the people have been kind and helpful to me. Dr. Cooper received his doctorate at the beginning of the school year from FSU. Dr. Cooper has toured much of Europe, an experience valuable in teaching German. The language department's resource center was termi- nated because of lack of room, though many learning aids remained in room 75, such as records, tapes, film strips, books, posters, charts, flash cards, transparencies and musical instruments. Other means of teaching French and Latin included field trips Spanish classes got first-hand experience by conversing in Spanish with senior Beatriz fBettyj Alvitez, exchange student from Trujillo, Peru.
