Particular emphasis is placed on the relationship be tween the five major religions of Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, and Taoism. 2) Wars: U. S. in the 20th century This course emphasizes both the military and non-mili tary roles of the U.S. in the armed conflicts during this cen tury. It concerns WWI, WWH, Korea, and Vietnam. Studied in depths are the causes of each con flict, the reason for U.S. involve- ment^ and the impact of the con flict on the U.S. 3) Independent Study I: Only after a student has satisfactorily completed two credits in Ameri- ian Studies may he take the course. The class is designed for the above average student who will pick an ethnic group, an issue, or a period in history to work on. He will research the area chosen and use every tool to gain information on th topic. The final product is a written and an oral report. Margarel McBride Chosen Miss DECA Margart McBride was chosen as Miss Deca Friday, October 20, to represent Grimsley in the Dis trict meeting November 1 at Trin ity High School. Margaret, along with the two runner-ups, Pam Perry and Deb bie Craven, were judged upon attractiveness, poise, and person ality by two teachers and one student: Mrs. Debbie Hornaday, coordinator of COV, and Mr. Charles Hill, coordinator of ICT, and the student was vice-president of the Deca chapter. Dean Rogers. 4) Minorities U.S.A.: This is a new course designed to help stu dents appreciate the contributions of all peoples to our culture. Im migration is studied and discussed with an emphasis on its impact on the U.S. The student is taught to gather and evaluate data. The course is quite interesting as it is very relevant.
