I took Latin and (ancient) Greek in secondary school, I'm surprised they make you actually speak it over there. We learned the paradigms and vocabulary to be able to translate the texts, but we never trained conversation skills, or translated anything into Latin or Greek.
I did lose most of it though, especially the Greek.
The Latin did help me tremendously with my English, like someone already mentioned, as well as French and Italian.
Greek comes in handy with all the ...phobia's, and, when we passed notes in class we wrote them in the Greek alphabet so most teachers couldn't read them.
