World Studies: The World Studies course is a full-year course intended for all freshmen. It will fulfill the New Jersey graduation requirement of a one-year study of World History. The course begins with the Italian Renaissance and concludes with an overview of the issues of the 21st century.
AP Economics: It is important to note that AP Economics is not a Business or Finance course. The purpose of the AP Economics course is to provide students with a thorough understanding of the principles and applications of microeconomics and macroeconomics. This rigorous college level class will examine topics including (but not limited to): scarcity, cost, marginal analysis, supply and demand, the operations of free markets, externalities, distribution of income, government fiscal and monetary policy, aggregate analysis, the Federal Reserve System, inflation and unemployment, game theory, international trade and the U.S. and world economies. Students taking this course will be prepared for the national AP Microeconomics and AP Macroeconomics Exams. This course would fulfill the NJ State Graduation Requirement for Financial, Economic, and Entrepreneurial Literacy.
