Course Catalog

This course serves as an introduction to the Latin Language with an emphasis on how this language is used in the Catholic Church. The textbook we will be using draws its vocabulary from Caesar’s Gallic Wars which is a classical Latin text. Students will be given an online flashcard system as a resource to memorization. Topics covered in the first semester include: first through fifth declension nouns, adjectives, and preposition.

This course is a continuation of the study of Spanish for those interested in learning the language. This is an Advanced College Credit Program (ACCP) course offered through Missouri Western State University and St. Pius X High School. This is a year-long course and the continuation of the MWSU college credit as the third semester of University Spanish, a total of three credit hours. This course challenges the students with advanced grammar and varied opportunities to strengthen their control of the language. Through classroom interaction, students develop oral and written skills needed for practical and daily-life situations; study linguistic structures and functions needed to ask questions, compare, contrast, and describe; develop reading skills and expand vocabulary; and increase cultural awareness of the Spanish-speaking world. Students must earn a minimum grade of C in order to continue in sequenced languages courses.
