Social Stu dies . . . Before we can enter gateways into the future we must look into the past. In social studies we learn to study, un- derstand and interpret events through- out the years. We read and discuss the lives and works of famous people and the history and governments of na- tions. Panels, discussions, current events and trips help us in our studies. This year visits to the Freedom Train dur- ing its stay in Seattle were also in- cluded in the social studies courses. Knowledge of the past will help us as adults and voters beyond the gateway of high school. ,,.,rX fav' Row 1: Mr. Smith, Mr. Brinck, Mrs, Cooper, Mr. Warne. Row 2.'
