M For College-Bound Students The feeling of brotherhood and understanding toward people of the world is taught and demonstrated through the foreign language depart- ment at Warren Central. In these courses, students learn not only the country’s native tongue, but also its culture, geography, history, and ways of life. Foreign languages offered are French, German, Spanish, and Latin. Foreign languages such as German and Latin are often selected by stu- dents interested in vocations in the areas of science or medicine. Romance languages, such as French and Spanish, usually are se- lected by students who are interested in foreign affairs and ideas. Much of the classroom time is spent learning to pronounce, and knowing the meanings of words and sentences, as well as writing them. This year marked the re-opening of the new language center which allows students to record their own voices and teach themselves at their own learning rate. Right: Spanish students Darlene Wade and Scott Norman present a dialogue, a basic ritual performed in all language classes.
