About the Social Studies Department

SRHS' Social Studies Goal

As educators in the field of history/social studies, we want our students to understand the complexity of the social, economic and political world in which we live in.  We want them to know their rights and responsibilities as American citizens.  We want them to understand the meaning of the Constitution as a social contract that defines our democratic government and guarantees our individual rights.  We want them to take active roles as citizens and to know how to work for change in a democratic society.  We want them to understand the value, the importance, and the fragility of democratic institutions.  We want them to develop a keen sense of ethics and citizenship.  And we want them to care deeply about the quality of life in their community, their nation, and their world.
