Language Assembly At Strong Vincent four modern foreign languages are taught: French, German, Italian, and Spanish. Every year, these classes are given the opportunity to show the talents they have learned to the student body. This year's assembly was particularly outstanding. Each group presented a skit native to the country they represented. These pictures will bring back many pleasant memories.
