American history was taught to the sopho- mores by Miss Maureen Griffen. Besides learn- ing about the history of their country, the juniors also developed an interest and foundation in cur- rent affairs. In the junior year the students studied world history to acquire an extensive body of informa- tion and to help them develop social attitudes. Teaching world history were Miss Mathilda Sa- geng and Mr. John Hanson.- As seniors the students studied social prob- lems to increase their ability to meet every day situations. This was accomplished through the study of world affairs, guidance, psychology, eco- nomics, and sociology as it was presented by Mr. Arthur Avis. Social studies in the freshman year included the following areas of study: orientation, relations with others, occupations, and Minnesota govern- ment. Mr. Ivan Hurt and Miss Judith Yarger teach the freshman social studies classes. Mr. William Scherer taught seventh grade social studies.
