I love the idea of our high school having a Government class. Government is a crucial part of our American society, and I think that it is becoming somewhat of a lost art. Most Americans do not have a thorough understanding of our great government, and are somewhat ignorant towards what goes on in Washington. Government is also a class that is rarely taught in college, especially American government. High school is truly one of the only times that students can take a class that explains the ins and outs of our American government. This further allows our district to stand out and gives us as a student population an edge of knowledge.
Economics is another great course that our school offers. My favorite part about economics is that it will give students an idea if they are interested in anything business-related. Economics is pretty indicative towards a business mind, and I think it gives students a great idea if they are interested in that sort of field. Another great part about this class is that it provides kids with college credits. If students taking eco do well on the AP exam, they can potentially get out of a class like "economics 101" in college. This is beneficial and a great aspect of our district.
