History II Several changes have occurred within the Social Studies department, due to the 1977-78 initiation of a four year high school. Many teachers new to this school supplemented the staff, and the Social Studies program is presently being reviewed. No longer does the “PEP” program exist, nor can elective courses replace the mandatorv two years of American history. Such diversified courses as Anthropology ' , Sociology, Psychology, Civics, Religion in America, and Minorities are offered in the Social Studies curriculum. One of the goals of the department is the establishment of a stablized form for research papers. These modifications help to provide a solid and basic education in the social sciences for interested stu¬ dents. 24

Student Action for Educ ation With a wide choice of languages available to all students, the Foreign Language department, under the direction of Mrs. Amelia DeLauro, offers a curriculum designed to acquaint the students with the various languages and the cultures in which they are set. This department presents a five year sequence of study in French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Latin, and Spanish. Moreover, the Advanced Placement Program in French, German, and Spanish enables students to refine their proficiency in language study. English as a second language has been newly incorporated into the curriculum. Miss Joan Havens is responsible for the execution of this program for the entire school system. For those students who display outstanding ability in Spanish, the Joan Miro chapter of the Spanish National Honor Society was established in Paramus High School.
