asic Approach s Used Language is used by everyone, without it we could not communicate with each other. However, not everyone speaks the same language. In order to converse with people of different cultures, we must learn other languages. The foreign language department helped us learn languages other than our own. They offered a variety: Spanish, French and even German. The department had a new French teacher this year, Mrs. Hara- don. She moved here from France 9 years ago. The difficulty of learning a different lan- guage depended onthe amount of effort put pforth by the student. Mrs. Georgina Hat- ton, head of the foreign department, said, What you get out of it depends on what you put into it. p A little effort went a long way in learning to communicate with people of different cultures. - Mmm...- Mrs, Baker's Ist hour class gels an Espanol lesson PHOTO BY WILLIAMS Todd Purvis, junior, and Michelle Lanin, freshman, practice up on their French during Mrs. Vance's 3rd hour class.

The goal of Los Gringos was to get stu- dents together in a common atmosphere and become amigos. They had many social and educational gatherings to promote the idea. When Mrs. Joy Figuerola, sponsor of Los Gringos and Spanish teacher for 25 years, was asked what word best describes Los Gringos, she said, A1egria! Fun!

i E . ark's Department Develops Skill: by Stephanie McRae Arts and crafts was a class that gave stu- dents a chance to further develop their ar- tistic skills. The three levels of difficulty offered students a wide range of artistic ex- periences. Level one emphasized the basic elements of design. Level two involved the principles of design, and level three involved creative depth. Mr. Richard Mark, department head, said, When you work with your hands, you develop' coordination between your eyes, hands, and mind.
