An important goal of the Social Studies Department is to offer students opportunities to become responsible citizens and to find relevant real-world connections to the content that is taught in our classes. Students who have become involved in the clubs sponsored by our department have donated hundreds of hours to those in need in the community, brought awareness to the plight of others throughout the world and found a voice for their political beliefs and values.
