Summer Seminars


Each annual program begins with a summer seminar.  T
eacher-participants will receive a complimentary instructional kit that includes key books on content, standards, and the teaching of American history and a one-year free membership in the National Council for History Education. In the kit we have included two books which contain primary documents and are to be read before the summer seminar and school year discussions.
