Clubs and Other Opportunities

Clubs

There are clubs for French, German, Latin and Spanish students. Each club offers different activities and opportunities for students. Some clubs have a particular service element. Students receive information about the clubs during the ACA fair which occurs in September.

Declamation

Each year in March, the World Language department holds a Declamation contest. Students select a poem or prose piece, interpret and memorize it to perform. Initial competition occurs in the language department and the finalists compete in the auditorium in March with outside judges presiding.

Exchange

Student exchange opportunities that are language focused are available for students in French, German, and Spanish. Latin students have the opportunity to participate in a trip focusing on the ancient world in Rome.

Movies

Each year the French and the Spanish departments host a movie night in spring. During the school year, many teachers use film as a learning device to further develop cultural awareness and language skills.

Resources

Additional language resources may be found on the individual language pages. And students will receive the newest information about these opportunities from their classroom teachers.
