About the South Carolina Social Studies Curriculum

How SC Academic Standards Work

South Carolina sets its own social studies standards through the SC Academic Standards, organizing content by grade around civics, economics, geography, and history strands.

How South Carolina Differs

South Carolina sequences a dedicated South Carolina history unit in 3rd grade, separating state history from US history earlier than many other states do.

How South Carolina Social Studies Progresses

Students move from community and map skills in elementary grades through world and US history in middle school, then into named high school courses including Civics and Economics.

How South Carolina Assesses Social Studies

SC READY tests social studies in selected grades; high school students complete end-of-course assessments, with college readiness supported through the full course sequence.
