Calvert's History Courses

Explore the world through engaging literature and lessons

Calvert School presents a broad selection of history courses designed to develop an understanding and appreciation of the importance of historical study.

• Learn more about the state in which you live
• Identify important figures in American history
• Study mythology as a foundation for literature appreciation
• See how history has influenced art and how art has influenced history

Calvert's history courses also include A Child's History of the World, the classic text written by Calvert School's first Head Master, Virgil Hillyer.
