Skirting the System: AP US History

Join a Nationwide Conference Call to hear how the AP’s new U.S. History Framework is pushing curriculum to the left. Concerned Women for America Legislative Action Committee and American Principles in Action invite all concerned parents, grandparents and citizens, whether you have students in AP courses or not, to join this very important conference call.  A panel of experts will educate you on what the College Board has in store for America’s AP U.S. History students and will explain specific steps that can be taken to push back against this egregious attack on the U.S. History standards and curriculum.    Without state pushback, this new APUSH Curriculum Framework will go into effect this fall (2014). Without state pushback, APUSH teachers may have to ignore their own state’s U.S. History standards if they hope to prepare their students for success on the new APUSH exam – which will NOT cover material outside the new Framework.
