Social Studies

The Social Studies Department of Edgewood Middle School prides itself on giving your student the skills and tools necessary to succeed in the real world. We craft our curriculum and lessons around critical thinking, analysis, discovery, and communication and interpersonal skills. Most of our focus is on getting your student to be confident in their reading and writing ability as they grapple with historic texts, pictures, charts, graphs, and other sources. Understanding history teaches us how to be better citizens as well as how to combat sources that are not credible. Together we can make our community a better place while preparing your student with the necessary skills to succeed in the next phase of their educational adventure.
