<p>Our school is going through a curriculum change. It used to be this:
9 - Honors World Cultures
10 - AP Euro
11 - APUSH
12 - AP US Gov (half-year)</p>

<p>Now:
9 - AP World
10 - APUSH
11 - AP US Gov (with some economics stuff)
12 - elective</p>

<p>AP electives are now AP Euro, AP Psych, AP Art History, AP Comp Gov, and AP Micro/AP Macro.</p>

62

<p>9th: Honors World History
APUSH is a two-year course at my school, so…
10th: APUSH 1
11th: APUSH 2
12th: elective (AP Psych, AP Euro, AP Gov’t & Politics, D/E Intro to Psychology, or D/E Intro to Sociology)</p>

63

<p>Here’s how it goes at my school normally, but of course there are exceptions:</p>

<p>8th Grade: US History (1600s-Civil War) (middle school)
9th Grade: Regular or Honors US History (Civil War-Present) OR AP US History
10th Grade: Regular or Honors Government OR AP Gov
11th Grade: Regular or Honors World History OR AP World</p>

<p>We only need three years of history, but a lot of seniors take AP Euro as an elective. Also, a lot of kids seem to take AP Gov without taking APUSH, and then take APUSH as seniors.</p>

<p>It changed after my freshmen year, so my track is different than the students a year younger than me. </p>

<p>Track available to me:
9th grade: World Studies or Honors World Studies (both had a quarter each of World History, World Geography, World Religions, and Current World Events)
10th grade: Economics (semester only, Honors not offered)
11th grade: US History or AP US History
12th grade: Political Participation, Constitutional Law, or AP US Government (1 semester each)
At least one semester of a social studies elective is required at some point during high school, it can be an extra semester of a government course in 12th grade, Psychology, AP Psychology, or Archeology. Current Social Issues would fulfill that requirement as well but it was only offered the first two years. </p>

<p>Track Available Now:
9th Grade: Civics and World Geography or Pre-AP Civics and Pre-AP World Geography (1 semester each)
10th grade: World History or Pre-AP World History
11th grade: US History or AP US History
12th grade: Political Participation, Constitutional Law, or AP US Government
Psychology, AP Psychology, and Archeology are available as electives but not required.</p>
