³Foreign Language studies began at age four when we lived in the Province of Quebec, Canada, and attended a French school. Our classroom teacher spoke French, and no English.

Our mom speaks to us in English, French, Spanish, and Arabic. I've also learned basic Sign language. We studied Italian to help with our music training. We studied Greek & Latin roots, pre-fixes and suffixes to help us with English, Music, and Science. See the links below for languages.

⁴Art Elective is cross-listed on the Arts page.

⁵Ancient Greek Mythology & Culture includes The Dialogues of Plato and The Socratic Method.

"The safest general characterization
of the European philosophical tradition

is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato"
A. N. Whitehead, Process and Reality, 1929
