The study of people, their governments, and their cultures is an essential part of the American educa- tional system. Our high school presents a variety of courses in these fields. Social living, a required course for freshmen, covers a general study of people as well as first aid, driver education, and health. There are two different history classes available to Lindsay High students. Cne is a required course in United States history for juniors. World history is an elective Course Open to sophomores, juniors, and seniors, although the majority are sophomores. The senior problems class has done cr variety of X-. A things this year. The first semester was taken up with a study of the problems which confront the American public: safety, housing, population, relig- ion, delinquency, education, etc. The second semes- ter was review of California history and govern- ment, along with other projects such as the career day at Porterville junior College. Americas policy of good will depends to a large degree on the education of young people in the field of social studies. It is through this medium that we learn to understand people and progress toward a peaceful world. AW ' N- fx
