AP Government
Course Description:
This course serves as an introduction to the US national government. It is taught with the conviction that students want to know not only who governs but also what difference it makes who governs. As citizens we all deal with the consequences of federal, state, and local laws and regulations.
This course is designed to enable students to develop a critical perspective towards governments and politics in the United States. Students will examine general political concepts as well as specific case studies. It is important that every student in this class try to stay abreast of recent political events in order to be able to intelligently and logically discuss current events in the context of what we are learning in class.
This course is yearlong, and culminates with the AP US Government exam that is given in May of each year.
