Dead
Languages Society
This club introduces members to the benefits of knowing such
dead languages as Latin, Ancient Greek, and Old English.
Members can improve their knowledge of English vocabulary,
mythology, and cultures of the ancient world.
French Club
Bonjour! French culture has made its own niche at MSJ in the
form of the French Club. The goal of this club is to allow
its members to experience and explore French culture through
a wide range of activities, which include Mardi Gras
luncheons, various dramatic productions, movies, and best of
all, chocolate-dipped delicacies! And remember, there is no
need to know or be taking French to participate in this club
and celebrate French culture, but for those who are taking
French, there is the opportunity to join the International
French Honors Society.
Japanese Club
Movie Nights are held at the end of every quarter is open to
the entire student body. There, we watch a Japanese movie
and have Japanese snacks. The week before winter break is
when we make origami Santa Claus ornaments. We also
celebrate Girl's Festival Day by eating traditional snacks
and learning about the event. During our meetings, we listen
to j-pop and talk about the current trends -- sometimes even
karaoke. In addition, Japanese Club is an active participant
during Multicultural Week. We plan to sell the same thing
next year - Ramune drinks because they were a hit. Next
year, Japanese Club has plans to visit the Japantown in San
Francisco where students will be exposed to the authentic
Japanese culture. Finally, the end-of-the-year party is when
we order Japanese food from a restaurant and have
numerous activities for the students.
Spanish Honor
Society
The Spanish Honor Society is an organization designed to
increase awareness ญof the Spanish language and culture as
well as encourage academic excellence in Spanish studies.
Members promote Spanish through cultural activities,
community service including tutoring Spanish
students, and field trips to Spanish cultural festivities
and productions. |
