of Spanish arts: writers, dramatists, painters, musicians, and dancers.

El Círculo Español de la Escuela de las Artes
de R. H. Rollings
The R. H. Rollings School of the Arts Spanish Club
The Spanish Club will be an active one! You can count on food days,
celebration of many Hispanic holidays, and lots of trips. Past
outings have included trips to Taco Bell and Los Loros, and laser
tag at Q-Zar (the OMS Spanish Club even had a Q-Zar lock-in last year).
I also plan to have outings to see the South Carolina Stingrays, and
a Myrtle Beach day trip to Wild Water and Wheels is also on the schedule.
The OMS Spanish Club also went to Cancún, México, two times, and we
experienced whitewater rafting on the Chattooga River last summer.
And what do all these activities have to do with learning Spanish? Plenty!
We'll be learning and practicing the language as we establish our community of
learners.
I'm glad to welcome you to the R. H. Rollings School of the Arts
community of Spanish-speakers!
