U.S. History and Constitution

Course Description

The focus of United States History and the Constitution is the story of the American people from the period of the colonial settlement to the present day—the establishment of the British colonies and the transfer of English political traditions, the creation of the United States as a new nation, westward expansion, the American Civil War and Reconstruction, the response to industrialization and urbanization of the late nineteenth century, and the nation’s developing role in world affairs in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. All students take the SC End of Course Exam, which determines 20% of their final grade.
