"Let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us. The ultimate rulers of our democracy are not a President and senators and congressmen and government officials, but the voters of this country." - Franklin Delano Roosevelt
As articulated by Franklin D. Roosevelt, democracy depends on the active participation of people, as citizens, in politics and civic life. The Perry High School Social Studies Department seeks to provide students with the tools to be personally responsible, participatory, and transformative citizens. Courses, experiences, and opportunities are carefully designed for students to learn social studies in real-world contexts and develop the knowledge and skills necessary for active citizenship. |
