SOCIAL STUDIES
Learning for life is key. At W.P. Wagner, we encourage students to take an active role in our ever-changing world. Using technology to link our classrooms to the world offers opportunities for students to engage, think critically and make informed decisions about the challenges we face.
Social Studies 10-1, 20-1 and 30-1 allow students to explore the meaning and effects of globalization, nationalism and ideologies. Students will also develop enhanced critical-thinking abilities and advanced essay-writing skills. Achievement in the -1 stream fulfills entrance requirements for post-secondary. A minimum mark of 65% in the previous Social Studies course completed is strongly recommended. These courses are also available at the AP level.
