AP European History
Course Description
AP Modern European History examines the political, social, artistic, and economic developments that occurred in and shaped Europe from approximately 1450-Present. Students will examine the broad trends that shape the European continent as well as the cultural, economic, and political exchanges between Europe and the wider world.
This is a class in which students are sure to find content that catches their interests, whether that be sciences, arts, politics, or even just a cool story. History is a subject that touches on so many other disciplines and I hope you will experience that in AP Euro this year.
If you have something in particular you want to learn more about, let Mr. Rundberg know and I'll be happy to help you learn more and find quality resources!
Parental and Student involvement in the course is important, and understanding the course content is a key part of that involvement.

"I thought it necessary to study history, even to study it deeply, in order to obtain a clear meaning of our immediate time."
