The basic objective of the Social Science Department is to foster good citizenship. The department hopes to attain this objective by a thorough study of our past history and current problems. Through this approach, the student becomes more cognizant of the duties and responsibilities of citizenship. Mo- tion pictures and phonograph recordings are used widely to explain historical incidents more effectively to the students. The department sponsors three student organizations: the Social Science Club, under the direction of Mr. Kruger, has engaged in many activities, includ- ing the management of school electionsg The Ushers' Club, sponsored by Mr. Coupe, takes care of the ushering chores for assemblies and other functions. Mrs. Moses is the sponsor of the Alumni Club. ii Mr. Wood E fig M E. M M M M Graphs and Statistics. SUCIAL SCIENCE Views of The News.
