Social Studies Now when I was your age , . . : - T; Write, I say, write. The social studies courses help the students of Waynesboro High to comprehend the world as it is, as it once was, and as it is becoming. Through the study of geography, history, and government, students can acquire knowledge and develop appreciation of cultural, political, economic, and social conditions and changes of the United States and the world. Some of the subjects dealt with include: the Civil War, American diplomacy, Greek city-states, Communism, Southeast Asia, Jack¬ sonian Democracy, The Roaring Twenties, feudalism, the New Deal, and political parties. Students won ' t soon forget WORLD WEEK, SENIOR SCHOLASTIC, NEWS¬ WEEK, or Richmond-Times movies which are used in the study of current events. Filmstrips, book reports and reviews, research projects, map studies, guest speakers, movies, fie Id-trips, and panels are many of the activities found in social studies classes. Let ' s hope the students of Waynesboro High are more aware of their citizenship in local, state, national, and world communities due to the social studies program. 26
