Educators teaching a social studies subject at St. Paul Preparatory School must indicate that courses are aligned to AERO (American Education Reaches Out) standards (cited in the syllabus). Further demonstration of the use of these standards must be evident in the educator’s pacing guide and unit plans. Evaluation of these standards and their implementation in the classroom will be the responsibility of school administration.
Students must earn a minimum of seven credits in Social Studies for all diplomas type in order to graduate. St. Paul Preparatory School outlines one possible sequence that could be fulfilled.

The basis of these classes may not always be clear, though there are key elements that must be in place in order to be considered for credit as outlined below.
