North Carolina Proposes a Change in High School Social Studies
Primarily, this deals with 11th grade, juniors. It is proposed to change US History curriculum from the founding to the present to 1877 to the present.
I'd have to agree, there is way too much US History to go over if you go all the way back.
Under the proposal, 9th graders, freshmen, will do global studies with a focus on the environment. Tenth graders, sophomores, will study civics and economics.
I would put the tenth grade curriculum in with the ninth. I would then have sophomores study US history from the founding to 1977.
