Mountain Lakes High School Social Studies Department

Welcome to the MLHS Social Studies Department homepage. Our department realizes that in the 21st century, our students need to be prepared to live as global citizens. Therefore our classes are geared to help students acquire knowledge of the diverse people with whom they share this world. Our courses were designed by using the NJ Social Studies Learning Standards.  

Moreover, as the world is experiencing a virtual revolution in information and communication technologies, MLHS students need to be trained to acquire and critically evaluate the abundance of information. Our teachers use resources and primary sources that foster the skills students need to communicate their knowledge about the social sciences.
