Statewide Dual Credit (SDC) American History is an academically challenging course aligned with postsecondary (college/university) standards. Students are taught using a curriculum created by a State of TN faculty working group consisting of college and high school faculty from across the state. The curriculum begins at the end of the 1800s and continues through to present day events. Students take a challenge exam written by university professors which accounts for 15% of the student’s final grade. This course qualifies for additional grade weighting.
