Picture
​This year-long course examines the major events and turning points of world history from ancient times to the present.

At the end of the course, students conduct a rigorous study of modern history, allowing them to draw connections between past events and contemporary issues. Throughout the course, students use a variety of primary and secondary sources, including legal documents, essays, historical writings, and political cartoons to evaluate the reliability of historical evidence and to draw conclusions about historical events.
