The Okeechobee High School social studies has eight teachers. That work teaches kids a lot of benefits and gives kids more information about the time when slavery and the wars began…Also, social studies teach kids a lot about the past and give them a clue of what happened when they weren’t born yet. Middle and high school social studies include many subjects about past and current human behavior. In Social studies, you would always learn something new because the past had a lot of things that happened and we didn’t even know. If social studies wasn’t around we would have difficulty knowing about the past. Social studies enable your child to gain knowledge about people like places and events building an appreciation. Kids would be shocked by the things that had happened back then that they couldn’t imagine.
