This is the first required course by NYS for students to graduate high school.
Global History I and II is a two-year world history survey course. In the ninth grade students begin the exploration of history with early human life and end in the middle of the 18 th century. In the following year, students will pick up from the mid 1700’s and continue to the most recent events. All aspects of social studies, such as culture, geography, history, and economics are included in each grade. Both levels focus on expository writing in the content area, with a focus on Global History concepts as determined by the New York State curriculum. At the end of Grade 10 students will take the Global History Regents exam, which is required for graduation unless completing an alternative graduation “Pathway.”
