Social Studies

Newgrange provides our students with a comprehensive Social Studies program starting at the elementary school level and continues into middle school and high school.  The elementary school social studies program starts with learning about communities and progresses with New Jersey history and the Lenape Indians at the fourth grade level, continuing on with states, their capitals and the different regions of the country.  Elementary school rounds out its program with United States History.  In the middle grades the focus is on World History.  

History in the High School involves three courses: World Cultures, United States History I, and United States History II. The curriculum in all three courses adheres to the Core Curriculum Standards.
