Social Studies Department

The Social Studies Department at Hmong College Prep Academy focuses on bringing current events and real-world application to all of the courses offered. With so many courses underneath the Social Studies Department, the faculty is very diverse in expertise, allowing for team-teaching and constant collaboration. This gives each student an exciting and new approach to Social Studies regardless of the course or instructor.

Working hand-in-hand with the departments within our school, specific Social Studies Standards are taught and reemphasized through the use of common course objectives. Students are taught these concepts to mastery and are assessed often to ensure that the concepts are understood and are reflected within each of their classrooms.
