SCRABBLE in Spanish? Si! Sophomores Kathleen Sullivan. Terri Sokolek and Kalhv Tillev lake a break from the normal class routine. New languages provide challenge What is that you're say- ing? A quizzical look covers the faces of freshmen, sopho- mores, juniors and even infalli- ble seniors as their teacher slowly repeats her instructions. Even the swiftest students be- come stutterers and the others become confused, often creat- ing sentences beyond belief. This course is not remedial English — it is a foreign lan- guage class. Some pupils were subject to extra conjugations by attend- ing the French, Spanish, or German Clubs' functions. Their degrees of activity differed ac- cording to the enthusiasm of the members. The Spanish Club, for instance, arranged several picnics, a Spanish dinner, and attended a language festival at the convention center. Spanish Club president Barbie McAtee commented, Members have learned and experienced a small amount of foreign culture through activities. The French Club maintaine an active calendar despite the minor setback. Mrs. Selke, th second year moderator, gav birth to twins and was replace by Mrs. Kathy White.

Taking time for reflection DISPLAYING POSTERS about their call to uniqueness are freshmen groups at their day of recollection. Waiting for things to happen seems to tai e up much of our time, as sophomores discovered on their day of recollection dur- ing the Advent season. Freshmen centered their day around the idea o( call, viewing a movie about Joseph in the Old Testament and his call to save his people. They studied their own uniqueness and their call to the Scecina community. DOING A POSTER lor the Guardian Angel Guild card party to raise funds for the special education room are Jim Cahill and Mark Terry. obsen.ed by Florence Bauman of G ..A. A RELIEF MAP of the Exodu.sjourney and a papier mache Moses are religion projects displayed by Sue Davidson and Theresa Ritzi. Christian Awakening was the theme of the seniors three- day retreat. Most seniors said the most powerful experience of the retreat was learning how much others, especially their parents, care for them. The days of recollection for underclassmen were a new ad- dition to the religion program. Seniors helped as leaders and speakers. Special education religion classes centered around scrip ture, personal problems ant group sharing, and celebratioi of special events. Senior Brigit Fisher assisted Miss Lowe witl these classes. Mrs. Myra Larabee, specia education teacher, said the stu- dents came for help in the sub- ject areas of reading, math sci- ence, or social studies, took some electives or requirements with other students. 52 Special education religion
