Language The two foreign languages which are being offered in Roosevelt at present are, Latin 3 and 4, and Spanish 3 and 4. In Latin 3 the students are required to make a Latin scrapbook, and work in a group to design and put up a bulletin board. Latin 4 has many things in store for the pupil, such as, field trips, oral reports, spell downs and various others. Spanish, taught by Mrs. Jean Mikkelsen, also has many interesting activities.
