Severna Park High – Honors Social Issues

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

Students will identify, analyze, and articulate an informed response to 21st century issues and problems that impact global societies, and are “shared” by groups of people. In order to use academic and civic dialogue to respond, students will need to locate and examine the current events, news media publications, and data sets related to a variety of contemporary topics and social issues. Students will be required to use a framework of academic research, sociological investigation, and civic action to engage with and respond to social issues, developing critical thinking, communication, and civil public discourse skills.
