Welcome!

Hello students and parents!

Welcome to our 8th Grade U.S. History website, your go-to spot for everything we’ll be learning and exploring this year. Here, you’ll find class updates, assignments, resources, and fun ways to connect with the incredible story of America, from its earliest peoples to the challenges and triumphs that shaped the nation we know today.

Students, this is your space to stay organized and up-to-date with what is going on in our class. You’ll be able to check up on the lessons we are currently on, review helpful study materials, and even find extra resources to deepen your understanding.

Parents, this site is designed to keep you in the loop. You’ll find important announcements, reminders, and a clear view of what your students are working on each week. My goal is to make sure you feel connected to our classroom and the journey we’re taking together.

History is more than dates and facts—it’s the story of people, ideas, and decisions that still shape our lives today. I’m thrilled to explore it with you this year, and I look forward to seeing all the curiosity and creativity you bring to our class.

Thank you for visiting, and here’s to an amazing year of learning!

Coach Brown
