Welcome

This website will serve as the main hub for all things related to your summer project.

In AP United States Government and Politics, we will explore the roots of American government through the Foundational Documents of the Founding, the institutions which characterize our system of governance, and the ways in which political action intersects with these institutions, to create the American civic experience.

The goal of this course is to establish what the Founders called an "enlightened citizenry" who will be equipped to serve their country and communities beyond their time at Bishop O'Connell High School.

Mr. Ruff and Ms. Cottrell look forward to working with you this upcoming school year!
