Students Read of Present, Past It has been said that man learns from his past mistakes. A study of his- tory, not only of such tragedies as wars, revolutions, recessions, and famines, but of such triumphs as treaties, break- throughs in medicine and law, and the gain of freedom, teaches us much about our future. The study of how our government works-and why-is definitely neces- sary to insure that we will be able to properly function in a world that is be- coming increasingly difficult to under- stand. American history is just as the name describes-the study of the history of the United States from the landing of the Pilgrims to current events. Civics is more specifically a study of United States politics, including the rights of American citizens and how a bill is passed. This class keeps students up to date with the news. Free enterprise is not a study of gov- ernment, but of U.S. free enterprise and capitalism, meaning that citizens control businesses, not the government. World history, sociology, and geog- raphy, though not required courses, are also very educational. These classes help us in relating to others and in un- derstanding one's own self and values. 1. Trula Haley and Ximaena Thomas work to- gether on an American History project. 2. Bryan Phillips and Patrick Foster explain the Declara- tion of Independence to the Civics Class. 3.
