Language Arts The language arts classes consist of English, speech, and Spanish. English is the most important part of a student's education. Everyone needs to know how to speak and write correctly. The main attraction of the speech department this year was the play, ESCAPE VELOCITY, written by Dr. Pickartz. The students presented the play in their new theatre. Spanish is the foreign language offered here at Roland. One never knows when he may need to speak a foreign language in order to communicate. English students enjoy reading newspapers in Mrs. Maloy’s room each week on Thursday. With interest. Doctor Pickartz and Roxana Gardner watch a performing speech. Pam Gray gives a speech for Doctor Pickartz and the cl ass. Tony Williams looks over his English before handing it in for a final grade.
