Is this class hard?
Class will only be difficult for students who do not complete assignments and have frequent absences.
How can I get help if I don't understand something?
I am always available for help before or after school or during your lunch period and/or C-block. I will also be happy to respond to questions by email or through google classroom.
Will I have to remember a bunch of dates and people?
NO!!!!!!! History is the study of all things, including political, social, economic, environmental, intellectual, and religious advancement and achievement.
Why should I study history?
A student should study history in order to know the context of today's society. It is imperative for someone to know where we came from in order to make decisions on where we need to go. History should be learned from, used as an example and guide, and to help us gain an understanding of other cultures and interactions among the peoples of the world. Additionally, it is a graduation requirement.
