Welcome to H-High-S! The primary purpose of H-High-S is to facilitate an ongoing discussion of curriculum, instructional strategies, and educational resources involved in teaching history, social studies, and related subjects in American secondary schools.
Dear Colleagues,
I've been talking with history and social studies teachers on facebook and twitter about "how to address what happened today" in the classroom tomorrow. I have my thoughts, but I'm curious what you would say to the many teachers who are confused and feel ill equipped on how to proceed in the classroom.
What do you think?
Best,
Josh Jeffery

JOB DESCRIPTION
High School History Teacher (Part-time 2020-2021)
I have been teaching a course on either anthropology or Africa on a rotating annually basis and believe that all students should be required to take a course in anthropology, world history that focuses more on non-western cultures/history, AP human geography or some kind of ethnic studies.
