Learned more about other cultures in geography class

ACHS once had French, German, and Latin

Joyce M. Coomer writes:
When I took Spanish class in high school, there was very little, if anything, mentioned about the culture of Spain or Mexico or any other Spanish-speaking culture - we learned just the language. I learned more in Mr. McLain's (I think I spelled his name correctly; he was my teacher my freshman year in high school.) geography class about foreign cultures than I ever did in Spanish class . . . The high school at that time also had French, German and Latin classes available. - Joyce M Coomer
