There is more to social studies than memorizing names, dates, and other facts. It deals with peo- ple and the things that made them who they were. It tells about im- portant happenings in our history that helped shape America and our policies as well as the rest of the world and it gives us the causes and results of these events. Social studies provides us with an opportunity to study about other people in different parts of the world and all the problems they face. lt gives us a chance to see how lucky we are to live in the United States and shows us how much we take for granted. An- other thing that we take for grant- ed is the terrific social studies de- partment we have here at Seneca. They put alot of time and effort to make the classes interesting and fun and they do a great job of it. 1.

Academic Excellence 1. Mrs. McNairy explains the SSS postulate to her fourth period class. Seneca Valley is known as the best school in the county. This is due not only to our domination in sports but also to the academic side of our school. The teachers here are extremely dedicated and put forth energy into teaching their classes. While the teachers deserve alot of credit for all that they do, the students should also be recognized. They learned to balance sports, hobbies, work, and homework and still maintain Seneca's record of excellence. 1, Mrs. Murfin demonstrates a sewing technique. 2. Cream or sugar? 3.
