This is a review of what the role of social studies should be in high school. Social Studies is 4th in importance of the required core curricular, however is usually more required than math or science. Very few states have a secondary social studies test for students and therefore it becomes a state by state mandate issue. The key to a quality program is to; create critical thinking, enhance language arts in reading and writing, do charts and graphs for ACT prep, and most of all to give student historical and geographical knowledge. Obviously, like most of the episodes this is my perspective on social studies in high school.
