World Languages Department Invitation to MHS Community – Friday, March 12
As part of a week-long recognition of World Languages, the MHS foreign language teachers would like to invite members of the community who are native speakers or proficient in another language to “dialogue” with our students during the three lunch periods (11:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m.) on Friday, March 12. The “dialogues” will include small stations set up in the cafeteria for conversational speaking. This is an exciting way to participate with the World Languages Department and assist in fostering unique opportunities for students. French, German, and Spanish are offered at MHS, but the school community represents numerous other foreign languages as well.
If you are interested in participating, please contact Mary Lou Roma (Supervisor of World Languages) at mlroma@metboe.k12.nj.us.
