- Students are required
to successfully complete three years (15 credits) in Social Studies, including two years of United States History.
- Ninth graders
are required to take a course entitled "World Cultures."
- These three years of required social studies instruction are designed
to provide students with both a global historical perspective
as well as a solid base of knowledge and appreciation of the
fabric of our American heritage.
- An emphasis on the
historical, political, geographic, economic, and social/cultural
aspects of both the human and American experience underscores
our social studies program.
- Instruction in the
required courses of World Cultures, United States History I,
and US History II, is presented at three levels of respectively
increasing rigor: Survey Level, College Prep Level, and Honors
Level. Students who meet the selection criteria may opt to pursue
Advanced Placement study in United States History I and United
States History II.
- Additional advanced
placement options for upperclassmen include AP Economics and
AP European History.
- Other electives for
upperclassmen include Psychology, College Prep Economics,
20th Century Europe, Sociology, and American Government.
