Social Studies
Supervisor's Message
History cannot give us a program for the future, but it can give us a fuller understanding of ourselves, and of our common humanity, so that we can better face the future.
Today’s citizens must navigate a society that is increasingly complex, global, and interconnected. The Howell Township Public Schools social studies curriculum embraces the challenge of nurturing enlightened members of a rapidly-changing world. Through this curriculum, students learn to think critically and collaboratively about local, state, national, and global issues and develop the skills to actively contribute to their communities, both large and small. In order to accomplish this, students must understand and analyze historical events, political institutions, civic ideals, global economies, and international relations. Our students learn to consider multiple perspectives and appreciate cultural differences while noticing and noting the common qualities that unite humankind across diverse cultures and historical eras.
