Who is it for?

While the course has been built with homeschooling high school students in mind, the class is open to anyone who wants a foundational understanding of our nation's history.

Who is the author/teacher?

This course was created by Emily Glankler (founder of Anti-Social Studies) in collaboration with a team of experienced high school history teachers and instructional designers.

Will there be live classes?

However, everyone enrolled in this course will be invited to a live monthly skills-based class led by Emily. The focus of these sessions will be on historical skills, including document analysis, historical writing, research and more.

Our Mission:
