American history. world history. and American problems are the Classes in whieh we learn these points. Seniors find that past social studies courses have opened the way to a more intensive study of local and world situations in twelfth grade proh- lems, divided into two semesters of economies and sociology. lNhile freshmen learn the values of a demoeratie government. juniors put this knowledge to work and add to it in American history.

QRousseauj Through our hne arts pro- gram, the works of great composers and the ireation of artistic pieces are adding charm to the lives of the students. The many branches of creative art - jew- elry. sculpture. design. painting and sketch- ing i offer a great challenge to create new and unique ideas. Choirs, band. and orchestra serve as oppor- tunities for students to develop their musical talents. ltiuch of their time is devoted to planning and preparing for the various spring festivals. concerts, and Christmas programs which, under the fine leadership and skillful training of the instructors, are usually success- ful. Although very few students will choose music or art as professions. their lives will he enriched because of education received in these fields. john Krainik, Mil- waukee State.
