Simsbury High School seeks to provide every student with a rich and challenging education in Social Studies.  Students research and explore a core set of social studies themes as they are challenged to become critical, ethical, and creative thinkers.  Through the study of civics, history, geography, economics, and the social sciences, students acquire skills and knowledge essential to understanding and applying those fields in their daily lives.  As a result, students leave Simsbury Public Schools as life-long learners who appreciate the past, understand the present, and are prepared for the future.
