Department Vision Statement:

 As Social Studies teachers, we will:

·        … actively participate in the development of active, responsible citizens for a democracy.  We will conduct mock elections, encourage voter registration and model civic discourse within our department and school faculty.

·        … work together to create a unified program of curriculum, instruction and assessment in history and social sciences that is academically rigorous, relevant and responsive to student needs and our changing world.

·        … make a difference in our students’ lives by improving our students’ ability to think, read critically, express themselves verbally and in writing, use technology to solve problems, and understand multiple perspectives.

·        … model lifelong learning for our students by continuing in our own intellectual and professional development.
