SOCIAL STUDIES

 

Over the summer, K-12 core curriculum committees spent numerous hours on curriculum revisions.  The work involved embedding the Common Core State Standards into each curriculum content area. 

 

The Social Studies curriculum has been revised to include appropriate units of study at each grade level.  At the high school, the social studies teachers have been working in collaboration with the English department to create a curriculum that infuses literacy in the Social Studies Curriculum.

 

The seventh through twelfth grade social studies curriculum will be in the review and planning stage of the curriculum development cycle to assess our curriculum needs in relation to state social studies curriculum changes.
