A Message To Our Parents & Students...
The Social Studies Department believes it is our responsibility to provide a curriculum and learning opportunities that will help students to learn about themselves while also learning about the worlds beyond Bayonne. We also believe it is our responsibility to help students to develop the knowledge and the skills to become active and engaged citizens.
The skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening never go out of fashion. That said, it is now more important than ever for students to know how to critically evaluate information and to find reliable sources.
