Introduction

     Welcome to the Newburgh Enlarged City School District Social Studies Department webpage. Social Studies is an essential component of the core curriculum in Newburgh schools from kindergarten through high school.

New York State requires students to study in five social studies content areas. They are:

• History of the United States and New York
• World History
• Geography
• Economics
• Civics, Citizenship, and Government

     On this page you will find our curriculum maps (for each grade level) which highlight the breadth, depth, and richness of our program. You will also find links to resources arranged in progressive order from local to global.
