Social Studies Overview

Students in Secondary Social Studies courses have the opportunity to engage in learning high-level content and skills as required by the State of Florida Academic Standards and B.E.S.T standards for Social Studies. Students learn concepts and content in the areas of American History, World History, Geography, Economics, Financial Literacy, Civics, and Government through a variety of required and elective courses.

It is our goal that through Social Studies instruction students are provided with the knowledge, skills, strategies and experiences to become active citizens in local, state, national and global society.
