Senior Social
While the primary drives of the course are Civics and Economics, Senior Social will incorporate skills and knowledge from earlier courses, especially psychology, sociology, and anthropology. Civics will be taught on several scales, from international relations and comparative politics to local elections and active citizenship. Economics topics will similarly range from economic decision-making and markets in microeconomics to national and global economies in macroeconomics. Students will be expected to show mastery of social studies skills in creative and critical thought by the end of the course.

United States History
Understanding our country’s past is necessary in order to be a part of its future. This year-long course will cover many events and themes throughout American history from the pre-Columbian period through the present day. Students will learn skills in critical historical thinking, research, argument, writing, presentation, and educational technology.
