The purpose of US History is to study and evaluate US action over the course of the last 236 years. Students will examine the political, social, and economic forces at work throughout our nation’s young history and analyze how these events have molded our existence today. Study will begin with the development of our constitutional government, continue through the 19th and 20th centuries, through present day, and incorporate a variety of geography skills necessary to enhance and strengthen the student’s knowledge of this curriculum.
