Nevada Academic Content Standards for Social Studies
Description en-US:
Social studies education is the foundation of our republic, providing all students with a foundation in democratic principles and civic responsibility they need to create an enlightened, inclusive, and innovative nation. These K-12 social studies standards highlight the framework for professional deliberation and planning for social studies education in Nevada. The standards help educators create a student-centered approach to social studies in which critical skills and inquiry are the focus, rather than rote memorization of facts. These standards reflect an instructional shift and will enhance education for every student in an increasingly complex and fast-paced society. Social studies educators are responsible both for giving students the tools they need to be successful once they leave the classroom, as well as shaping the civic and social consciousness of the future leaders of our country.
