Social Studies

Students are challenged to think in terms of communities and how human beings affect each other.  Critical thinking is emphasized as we weave the ideas of The Catholic Social Teachings into lessons.  In our 21st century world, students are immersed in a Social Studies curriculum that inspires us to ‘think big.’  Each grade level’s focus (listed below) is divided into the following units: Geography, Behavioral Science, History, Political Science, and Economics.
