History . . . For Freedom, Our Hearts Will Sing MRS. PHYLLIS PUTNAM Department Chairman American history is the theme for seventh and eighth grade students. Seventh graders study from the Ren¬ aissance to the Civil War, eighth graders from the Civil War to present day. Students learned to form hypo¬ thesis and from them gather conclu¬ sions.
