Free Civics Curriculum
Empower Young Minds with Essential Civics Knowledge
Welcome to Simply Civics, a free, rigorous civics curriculum aimed at increasing and honing civics competency and facilitating an active and informed citizenry.
It covers a foundational understanding of American history and how the U.S. government was created with a system of checks and balances designed to protect citizens' rights.
The syllabus begins by covering not just the rote answers to the 100 questions on the citizenship test used by the USCIS, but also the why behind each one.
We offer a national curriculum available to any teacher in any state, with state-specific versions developed to meet individual state Department of Education requirements.
