Social Science
MISSION:
The Social Studies Team at Vista Murrieta is designed to actively engage our students in a creative, hands-on, active learning curriculum. We will work to instill in students an understanding of their cultural, national and political heritage and to provide them with a working knowledge of the economic, political and social factors that make up the increasingly complex global society.
