SOCIAL STUDIES. TEACHES RESPONSIBLE CITIZENSHIP We saw history in the making during the 1960 presidential election. In the course of the campaign our social studies classes provided us with greater understanding of our election processes and added interest to our quest for knowledge of foreign affairs. The social studies program consists of courses in community civics, world geography, world history, American history, civics, economics, and World Problems. In these classes the processes of democracy are defined and explained. Group thinking and dis¬ cussions help students make critical use of mass modes of com¬ munication. Attendance at 1960 election campaign party rallies, visits to federal, state, and local departments of government helped make us realize the responsibilities which freedom gives us. World history taught us much about the dawn of ancient civilization. We progressed rapidly from the Eqyptian pyramids to the Egypt of Nasser, from democracy in Athens to totalatarianism in World War II. American history provided accounts of the creation of our country and its heritage of liberty, order and justice. In civics, economics, and World Problems we discussed every¬ thing from the organization of government and American freedom of enterprise to African independence, Castro ' s Cuba and Khrush¬ chev ' s attempts to bluff us with his blasts. Students of social studies have lived through a challenging history making year. Ethel Bone and Frank Stefanelli follow Ed Kis ' explanation of the Freedom Shrine in the East Study. These replicas of famous historical documents often provide valuable help to history students.
