Social Studies
Welcome to the Harrison High School Social Studies Department. Our goal is to help students become informed and responsible citizens. In our courses, we provide our students with a social, geographical, and historical framework for understanding cultures and governments on a state, national, and global level. Students also have the opportunity to study human social behavior as well as psychology, economics, environmental issues, and politics.
