CURRICULUM GUIDE

About the Massachusetts Social Studies Curriculum

How Massachusetts Learning Results Works

Massachusetts sets its own social studies standards through the Learning Results, organizing expectations by grade band across history, civics, economics, and geography.

How Massachusetts Differs

Massachusetts separates its high school sequence into four distinct courses - Civics and Government, Economics, Geography, and History - rather than folding them into a single survey course.

How Massachusetts Social Studies Progresses

Students move from community and local geography in the early grades through U.S. and world history in middle school, then into the four named high school courses.

How Massachusetts Assesses Social Studies

Massachusetts uses the MCAP and state assessments to measure social studies knowledge, with high school courses supporting both civic participation and college readiness.
