History/Social Science

The HBCSD History and Social Science Department values lifelong learning developed through inquiry and exploration of key historical concepts, as well as the examination of social, economic, and political problems facing the state, nation, and world. Through engaging in meaningful discussion and collaborative experiences, we work to prepare all students to be informed, broad-minded, responsible, and ethical citizens in their communities.
