77 ' f cJu., ac- ' S History classes provide an excellent Each year the field of history embraces all that can be known about the activity of man in society from the earliest times to the pres¬ ent. It includes the study of the po¬ litical experiences, social institu¬ tions and intellectual creations. Social Studies provide not only an excellent foundation for many related fields of study, but also a background for a better apprecia¬ tion of our cultural heritage along with a much-needed understanding of the world in which we live. This year students at Garinger exercised their understanding of the world by taking advantage of this election year. Many Social Studies classes used this event as a basis for class discu ssions and debates. Several teachers held their own presidential and guber¬ natorial races complete with can¬ didates, speeches, and voting. You can always tell a Halo girl. Mr. Camp checks for details. 26
