Course Work

The topics and projects listed in the following overviews are samples of what has been done in the past and should be regarded as an indication rather than a guarantee of what may be done in the future. Since all middle school classes keep an eye pointed towards current events and the interests of both students and teachers, the curriculum for a given trimester may be altered to increase relevance. Additionally, it is the philosophy of the MS History Department to provide opportunities for both the teachers and the students to utilize their individual talents to the best of their abilities. Consequently, students at the same grade level may be exploring different topics and not all will be exposed to the identical material. Teachers throughout the department do work together though to make sure that each student will have the opportunity to receive a thorough, basic understanding of key issues in History, both in this country and throughout the world.
