Welcome to Yorktown High School’s Social Studies Department!
The Social Studies Department at Yorktown High School centers on the belief that social studies education is fundamental to developing critical thinkers, effective writers, and adept problem-solvers. We aim to deepen students’ understanding of an ever-evolving world and the complexities of the global economy. We emphasize the vital role of social studies in fostering responsible citizenship. To achieve this, our courses prioritize not only the acquisition of content knowledge but also the development of essential skills that empower students for success in their post-high school endeavors.
