Scholars who participate regularly with this curriculum will being to see patterns among places, people and timelines that show up again and again in order to naturally develop a big-picture world view.
Social Justice and Honesty
Road School America recognizes that what is taught is selected. We are committed towards teaching a secular, truthful history that is centered on social justice. The perspectives shared in the history lessons are designed to have scholars think critically about different perspectives and what could have/should have been done differently.
