Language Labs Promote Fluency | This year’s Foreign Language Department is composed of over 41% of Wakefield’s students with the most popular of the languages being French. The staff consists of a full time secretary and eleven teachers. Because the department now | offers four foreign lanugage laboratories, a student is able ' to develop a more fluent language. He has a choice of either | four years of Latin and German or five years of French and Spanish. MR. GILL MISS HARRIET MRS. HELEN MRS. NAOMI MR.
