History
With integrated topics in Geography and Civics, K¹² History opens young minds and imaginations to far-off lands, distant times, and diverse cultures. K¹² emphasizes the story in History—a story that includes not only great men and women but also everyday people.
The kindergarten History program takes your student on a world tour of the seven continents, and provides an overview of American History through a series of biographies of famous Americans. The History program in grades 1–4 tells the story of civilization from the Stone Age to the Space Age. Older students explore major themes and topics in greater depth through a pair of two-year survey courses, one on World History and the other on American History.
