The  Social Sciences Department is a comprehensive department which works to address the social problems of our modern world and community through academics. Our goal is to provide a quality educational environment, leadership experiences and opportunities for our students, and exposure to campus‐wide, district wide, and community activities.

Positive social values are strongly promoted and developed through our academically and culturally enriched environment. We have designed programs which encourage and challenge the student to excel in critical thought, and theoretical applications to “real world” experiences.
