Social Sciences Include the Past and the Present The social sciences played a very important part of the 1969-70 curriculum at CHS. Classes in this field were offered both as required and as elective courses. Students at CHS learned of our world’s past as sophomores in world history, a required course taught by Mrs. Grace Winter. American History, a required junior subject, helped students to gain a better understanding of why our country is the way it is today. Donald Giese taught this course and also a course in world geography.

Patience and concentration are required in geometry which in- volves angles, planes, and dimensional figures. Advanced mathematics is a combination of both algebra and geometry and allows students to review and further their skills in this field. A new series of texts were used in Algebra I and geometry this year. The series will be continued as the students reach the Algebra II and advanced mathematics courses. General Mathematics or Algebra I is a required freshman subject. Gary Meeder taught the general mathematics, geometry, and advanced mathematics courses and Mrs. Lois Kaltsulas the Algebra I and II courses. Algebra II students, Bonita Raish and Kathy Garris, practice working logarithm problems. 19
