Citizenship

Citizenship education addresses the knowledge, skills, and understanding necessary for a student to function in a democratic society and to pass the U.S. citizenship examination. The democratic rights and responsibilities of a citizen and the meaning of citizenship are explored, along with study of the constitution and the history of the United States.

The course has three parts:

• Part I: The Naturalization Pre-Interview
• Part II: The Naturalization Interview and the Civics, Speaking, Reading, and Writing components of the Naturalization Test
• Part III: The Naturalization Post-Interview

The program may not be offered each trimester. Contact School for current information.
