Congratulations to Spanish 5 and French 5 for
winning this year’s AP Foreign Language Kickball
Game. Despite a strong showing by German 5 (and

contrary) Spanish and French were triumphant!
All 4th year foreign language students should
give serious consideration to taking AP next
year, because not only can you potentially earn
college credit, but you can also play kickball! |
