Social Science and World Languages
Social Studies
Understand Your History and the Broader World.
MSSM’s Social Studies and World Languages Department offers students electives in Anthropology, Micro- and Macroeconomics, and Sociology. U.S. History remains the hallmark of the MSSM junior year experience, focusing on the structures, traditions, and customs of American life. As student progress, several AP and advanced courses and seminars are options.
World Languages
In World Languages, students use a communicative approach to language study by speaking in the target language of French or Spanish. Travel opportunities to Peru, the Dominican Republic, and Québec City provide students with rich opportunities to see, speak, and experience the languages and cultures of a broader world.
