CITIZENSHIP EDUCATION THE FOREMOST AIM OF CITIZENSHIP EDUCATION IS TO HELP THE STUDENT BECOME A WELL-INFORMED CITIZEN OF HIS COMMUNITY. THE COURSE IS INCLUDED IN EVERY STUDENT'S SCHEDULE, NO MATTER WHAT PROGRAM HE IS TAKING. HISTORY COURSES AID THE STUDENT IN APPRECIATING OUR AMERICAN HERITAGE AND CULTURE. BY PARTICIPATING IN DEBATES, DISCUSSIONS, AND PANELS, EACH PERSON HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPRESS HIS OWN OPINIONS AND IDEAS. FILMS, SLIDES, FIELD TRIPS, AND SPEAKERS SUPPLEMENT THE COURSES. AT CLARKE THE STUDENT IS REQUIRED TO TAKE FOUR YEARS OF CITIZENSHIP EDUCATION. IN HIS FRESHMAN YEAR, THE STUDENT TAKES ECONOMICS, IN HIS SOPHOMORE, WORLD HISTORY. HIS JUNIOR AND SENIOR YEARS ARE DEVOTED TO THE STUDY OF AMERICAN HISTORY AND WORLD PROBLEMS. ADVANCED SENIOR STUDENTS ARE ELIGIBLE FOR A COURSE IN ECONOMICS. THE CURRICULUM OF THE CLASSES ON EACH GRADE LEVEL VARY TO SUIT THE NEEDS OF THE INDIVIDUAL. 4 FIRST ROW: Mr. Ralph Henderson, Miss Marilyn Bandiero, Mr. Patrick Kelly lchairmanl, Mrs. Sheila Cholden, Mr. llarold Healy SECOND ROW: Mr. Ira llolzager, Mr. Inhn Sardi, Mr. Ralph Guzewicz, Mr. John Leggett, Mr. Thomas Granowitz
