U.S. History: Juniors

U.S. History
 
Overview: Like any history course, it is impossible to include every event to study. Instead, emphasis is placed on the conflicts, both domestic and international, that have shaped the U.S. to this present time. The U.S. has always been a diverse country, so I believe it is important to include the positive contributions that other cultures have made on American history. I also believe that by learning about past conflicts, students will appreciate the sacrifices made by the numerous men and women throughout our great history.
