A new course was required this year in the curriculum of A.H.S. Health Education was designed to make students aware of the drug problem and the ever present threat to them as individuals. The large group lecture was used for films, filmstrips, and any other available audio-visual material. The open-minded small group discussions led the way to honest and informative sessions.

Faculty conferences prove beneficial to Mr. Bill Zuspon and Mr. Phil Schweitzer. SOCIAL SCIENCE Utilizes Small Group Techniques Small group discussions vitalize the entire Social Studies Program. Each student is urged to express himself in lively, thought-provoking sessions. American History helps a student understand his past and inspires him to participate in molding his future. Special projects during the year led students to realize community, national, and worldwide problems. Participation in County Government, discussion of U.S. NEWS AND WORLD REPORT, and the student writing of a final chapter for the course gave timely application to the study. College-bound students are urged to enroll in the Senior Economics-Sociology class. Theory of economics is supplemented by individual income tax reports, daily stock market report and a field trip to the local bank. Sociology classes utilize the problem solving technique for discussion of the student's life values centered about the individual, the home, and the nation.
