R-B 114 SOCIAL STUDIES The Social Studies program at Randolph High School offers a wide variety of experience to our students. Under the guidance of Mr. O'Brien, Mr. Chrisholm and Mr. Silk, students learn to encounter such pressing so- cial problems as Communism, Juvenile Delinquency, and Alcoholism, and to reflect on their influence on today's society. With a complete understanding of the past, of the workings of government and the obstacles of the future, the student of Social Studies is guided to a better interpretation of his own problems and of the part that he will play as a future citizen and voter.
