Five years ago, the Spanish classes started sponsoring a foster child, "Mirna who is 13 years old and lives in El Salvador. her family's income is 96 dollars per month, hardly enough to live one. Mrs. Heathcrington, the Spanish teacher thought that this would be a good way to raise some extra mon- ey to send to Mirna during the Christmas .season. Last year, the course raised -over 100 dollars. This year we hope to raise more than that to send to Mirna for Christ- mas.
