Understanding how government works is essential for every young citizen. In this dynamic one-semester course, students gain a solid foundation in civic life, politics, and the American government system. They explore the origins and development of democracy in the United States, learning how power and responsibility are both shared and limited to protect individual rights.
Students dive into the role of law in the American constitutional system, the rights guaranteed to all citizens, and how American politics influences global affairs. They also broaden their global perspective by comparing civic participation in the United States with that of other societies around the world.
Through engaging lessons, critical discussions, and thoughtful analysis, students not only learn how their government operates but also why active civic participation matters. This course equips students with the knowledge and skills to become informed, responsible, and active members of their communities and beyond.
