Welcome to the homepage for the Honors Government course at Academy of the Canyons Middle College High School. This semester long course explores the basic governmental systems of our nation, including the Constitution and Bill of Rights, the major branches of the government, Federalism, voting, and civic rights and responsibilities. The main focus of this class is to examine these elements and how they fit into our lives, as well as to improve your critical reasoning skills and your skills in writing, reading and research. Additionally, projects will be designed to improve student’s understanding of technology, encourage intra-personal communication, and allow opportunities for students to learn through experiencing historical events first hand. This class moves at a fast pace and is expected to be work intensive.
