Yes...this is a real class, and no...that is not a joke. Sports History (or Special Topics in Sports History) is exactly what it sounds like. This is a Social Studies/History class that meets the criteria for graduation for 1/2 Social Studies Credit at North Shore Senior High School. This class is only 1 semester long, so you will either be in the class from the beginning of the school year until Christmas Break, or you will be in this class from Christmas until the end of the school year.
This year we will be covering the following units:
1 - The Origins of Sports
2 - Women & Sports
3 - Race & Sports
4 - The Business of Sports
5 - American Sports on the International Stage
6 - Modern Sports
