Come along as we explore the United States system of government from its inception to present. In this Foundations of Government (Non-Honors) course we will focus on primary sources and writings concerning the original intent of the Founding Fathers as we examine the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Concepts of federalism, separation of powers, limitations of power, taxation and spending, and domestic and international relations will be analyzed utilizing a Christian worldview. Foundations of Government (Non-Honors) is a one-semester, high-school level course designed to equip students with the knowledge they need to become responsible, knowledgeable citizens.
