CURRICULUM GUIDE

About the Texas Social Studies Curriculum

How Texas TEKS Works

The Texas State Board of Education sets the TEKS, organizing social studies into four strands: history, geography, economics, and citizenship, applied at every grade.

How Texas Differs

Texas dedicates a full year to Texas history in 7th grade, a course many states do not offer, and requires Economics as a standalone high school credit.

How Texas Social Studies Progresses

Students move from community and family in kindergarten through U.S. and world history in middle school, then into four distinct high school courses.

How Texas Assesses Social Studies

STAAR Social Studies is administered in 8th grade. High school students may also take end-of-course exams that count toward graduation requirements.
