Hekima Ivette (10) talks to her teacher about their French unit over travel in Jeannette Oberg’s French 1 class, March. 31. “The class is helpful because I’m learning a different language and not many people have that opportunity. It gives me an advantage in the future,” Ivette said. “I’ll be able to help others in need. In Paris with the terrorist attacks, if I did know French I could have gone and helped out.”
