This independent study program is designed to assist the highly-motivated history student to explore topics of interest in detail. The course will be divided into two nine week segments with the objectives to be set forth by the student and teacher. The student will fill out an independent study contract with the teacher and will be evaluated by how well the provisions of the contract are fulfilled. The cooperating teacher will be assigned by the subject matter intended to be pursued by the student.
