Social Studies

Social Studies is the integrated study of the social sciences and humanities to promote civic competence.

Within the school program, social studies provides coordinated, systematic study drawing upon such disciplines as anthropology, archeology, economics, geography, history, law, philosophy, political science, psychology, religion, and sociology, as well as appropriate content from the humanities, mathematics, and the natural sciences.

The primary purpose of social studies is to help young people develop the ability to make informed and reasoned decisions for the public good as citizens of a culturally diverse, democratic society in an interdependent world.

Note: The NCSS (National Council for the Social Studies) House of Delegates

voted overwhelmingly in November, 1992, to approve this final version of the

definition of social studies presented by the NCSS Board of Directors.
