Our focus is American history from 1890-2001 with emphasis on understanding the “big ideas and themes” that are still relevant in today’s world. Course work will help students meet standards in history, geography, economics, and government. Both textbooks, The Americans* and History Alive!**, are available on the teacher website. Current events from a variety of sources are also featured in class.
