The Social
Studies Program at Little Flower Catholic High School for Girls is
designed to help our students understand life in America as well as the
world beyond. Supporting the knowledge learned in other disciplines,
we strive to help students understand how all human civilizations
developed along with the problems these peoples faced. We link
the problem-solving behaviors of the past to the issues nations face in
today's world to encourage our students to contribute solutions as women,
citizens and Christians.
To prepare our
students for their roles in America and a larger global community, we
attempt to foster a number of skills: formulate hypotheses, gather and
evaluate evidence from a variety of sources (artifacts, books, newspapers,
radio and television programs, maps, graphs, literature, music and art),
separate fact from opinion, generate social science data, develop critical
thinking skills, make conclusions, and write clear statements using their
research.
