Yes, especially as HS Seniors as they get ready to vote! This has become less common, I've been told by teachers, because the last 2 years of HS is saved for pre-college classes. So Civics is taught in Middle school instead? I had American Government as a Senior many years ago and believe that was more valuable than any other class...

the government does not desire us to make sound judgements. What government fears maximum is an informed inhabitants. are you able to think of what could take place to the government if We the people ever got here across that We carry each and all of the political capability and the government is definitely our servant? Why, there could be not greater taxes or an IRS. somewhat of valueless debt instruments stated as Federal Reserve Notes (We the people mistakenly call them money), we would have our gold and silver back. That grew to become into stolen from us from 1913 on whilst Congress illegally surpassed the Federal Reserve Act. desire greater? Courts could be valid Article III courts of effortless regulation, not the Admiralty tribunals we've got wherein settlement regulation has replaced constitutional regulation. once you visit a financial company to borrow funds, the financial company could lend you actual funds and that they could be on the hook for actual funds. on the instant they convey "funds" out of skinny air. truthfully you create the money with your promise to pay, so which you fund your guy or woman own loan and then pay it back to the financial company with interest. dazzling what they might do with 2 instruments of books. Civics is only the tip of the iceberg. You gotta dig a sprint deeper to get to the fact.

They should require American History along with Civics and Government. People have no clue about the history of this great nation. They have no clue about the previous wars. This is sad. A verse in the Bible goes along with this, My people perish for a lack of knowledge. So true.

Yes. High school students should be well informed about the government.

It depends on what grade in high school you are in, how fast you work, and I personally think everybody should work good in school because the better you work the better high paying job you will get.

I don't think so.
It would break down and become a course that glorifies the beauty of bureaucracy.
As suggested, Economics would be better.

Yep. And it should have an outside-of-class community service component to it.
