The social studies classes were brought together in December to view a news doc- umentary on the history, actions, and leader- ship of the Ku Klux Klan. An absorbing commentary, the film was timely because of the frequent appearances of the Ku Klux Klan in the news this year. The fighting in Viet Nam, which was a fear in the minds of many, was covered extensively by the students in Mrs. Berger's American problems classes. Seniors in American problems classes also covered areas of minority groups and the resulting, prejudices, labor relations, propaganda, the economic system of the U.S., and commun- ism. The American problems seminar class, which in the past had offered students a chance to delve deeper into American prob- lems, was discontinued tl1iS year to allow extra time and planning needed to change to a system of team teaching next year. In order to gain from the past, juniors were required to take American history. Much of the year was spent studying the workings of all levels of government and was often very effective because of the presence of speakers who take a part in our government. World history is designed as preparation for those going to college because it illus- trates the reasons for customs which are usually taken for granted.
