Past and present dduenti The Social Studies Department, under the direction of Miss Martha Taylor, is continuing to expand its facilities. The chief goal of the department is to prepare students to understand our world today. The present curriculum for seniors includes units on communism, facism, and democracy. Each system of government is carefully evaluated and tested for its merits. For juniors, there is the familiar study of American history. This deals with the period between the exploration of Columbus and die Civil War. Elective courses include Modern History and World History. They both deal with early and medieval periods in the world. The curriculum for social studies has also been enriched through the facilities of the Humanities Curriculum Center. It serves as an office for various educational departments. Many new filmstrips and textbooks are made available to all students. All of these activities enable the Department to present both a fascinating and interesting interpretation of history. EMIL H. STRACKE BA.. MA. New York University World History, US.

JOHN V. WILSON A.B. Montclair State College Algebra, Geometry ALBERT K. BOLLMEYER B.S. Rutgers University Algebra, General Math MILLER V. PRESTON B.S. Ursinus College Algebra, General Math It has been said that mathematics is the key to logical thinking. With this idea in mind, the Mathematics Department, headed by Mr. Lawrence T. Hatton, provides both basic and advanced curricula to aid students in future vocations and studies. In order to keep up with fast-increasing technological advances, a basic command of mathematical concepts and processes is essential. To achieve this end, the program has been revised to include five years of mathematics. College-bound students are provided with a firm foundation in computation and abstract theory. Algebra, geometry and expanded trigonometry give a broad survey of the fields of mathematics. Pilot geometry, an accelerated course, and advanced algebra, a college-level course, impart additional skills and a deeper understanding of the mysteries of mathematics. In addition, they offer an incentive for students to go further on their own. Students in Business and General Courses for whom high school may be the last educational opportunity receive instruction in solving problems which arise in every-day life. Various chances to participate in state and inter-state mathematics competitions are offered to interested and capable students. Past winners have often brought honor to this school. CLARK E.
