Today’s Pledge of Allegiance was in Latin by the President of the Latin Honor Society (Colleen Roney) and the Prayer was in German by the president of The German Honor Society (Peter Bean). Right now we will have interesting facts: Did you ever wonder why the language of ancient Rome was called Latin and not Roman? The answer is in the fact that Romans spoke the language of the district in which they lived, Latium in Italy. Now you know! Did you know that Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was a famous German writer and he said: Every day we should hear at least one good song, read one good poem, see one great picture and speak some sensible words. Now you know!
