Compass Prep

The primary goal of this American History course is to learn and understand the history of the United States from the first Americans to the present day. Students should be able to identify the major themes in American History and explain their importance at each stage in the development of the United States. We will start at the beginning with the First Americans. We will continue our quest of exploring the Americas, Colonial America, The Spirit of Independence, and the American Revolution. After visiting those times, we will then head into The American Revolution, The Constitution, Growth and Expansion, Manifest Destiny, the Split between the North and South, and the Civil War. After the Civil War, we will dive into the Westward Movement, the Industrial Age, The Rise to World Power, WWI, the Great Depression, WWII, The Cold War, Civil Rights, Vietnam, and all the way to TODAY… An honors option will be available for an additional fee.
