“St. Charles prepared me not only for high school, but for life. Learning good study habits and self discipline, taking class notes and writing research papers were essential to my success in college.”

Welcome to SCB Social Studies. The History courses and Houghton and Mifflin texts at St. Charles are designed to provide students with the comprehensive knowledge, civic values, and intellectual skills they will need to meet the challenges of citizenship in the 21st Century.

(High School requirement for Washington State will be completed in the 3rd trimester.)
Eighth grade History will use the text “A Perfect Union” and will cover the following themes in United States History: The Land, Exploration and Settlement, The American Revolution, American Government,(The Constitution) must take immigrants test for Naturalization.

Eighth graders will also spend about two weeks covering finance education. These two weeks will be concluded with the 8th grade attending a Junior achievement work shop covering the use of credit cards and how to create a budget.
The following links provide objectives of each lesson and lesson outlines:
Edline - Students assignments and grades are kept in the secure environment in Edline. There is also more detailed information on assignments.
Links - This links to the textbooks on line and other history and social study links that may be of benefit to the students. This is not the textbook in its entirety so students will still need to bring their textbooks home to study and do assignments.
