The Magical Wedding of Past and Present From the time when cave men roamed the earth until today, social studies students have explored man ' s development. To explore the individual and collective studies of man and his environment, stu- dents took psychology and sociology.

Geometry students studied plane figures and the postulates and theorems. All the students gained a greater understanding of the science of numbers.
