State Board Seeks Public Comment on Guiding Principles
The D.C. State Board of Education Social Studies Standards Advisory Committee (SSSAC) has been working since July 2020 to review and update the District’s statewide Social Studies Standards. The revision process presents an opportunity for the District’s Social Studies Standards to be culturally responsive, anti-racist, to impart important social studies content in the early grades, strengthen student knowledge of democratic principles and values, and promote civic engagement.
