The  social studies curriculum is directed toward the mastery of four separate sets of standards in each of the grade levels: history, geography, civics, and economics.

The curriculum for social studies is interdisciplinary and differentiated in content, process, and products.   The use of compacting, independent projects, student learning contracts, interest centers, and tiered assignments will be employed.  A variety of assessment strategies will also be used.
