Miss Snider showed Becky Cherry, Virginia Robinson, and Dan Bates the order of succession of the English sovereigns before Elizabeth I. World Affairs Discussed In Social Studies Classes Classes in the social studies department included World history, world geography, American history, American government and economics, and international relations. American history and govermnent and economics were required of every student before graduation. American history, usually taken in the junior year, taught students the history of our country. In their senior year, students studied American government and economics which helped them more thoroughly understand the workings of our American government and gave them insight into our nation's economic situation. World history, geography, and inter- national relations classes helped students become more aware of the world around them. 24 Mr. Hagarty explained imperialism and its effects on the nation to his American history class.
