Facing History’s unique approach to pedagogy, classroom resources, professional development, coaching, and support equips teachers with the tools and strategies they need to help students become thoughtful, responsible citizens.

Facing History is committed to teachers and students in underserved urban areas, which represent over 60% of our work in schools. By providing content and pedagogy that increases teacher effectiveness and stimulates students to learn at the highest level, Facing History works to bridge the opportunity gap that impedes success for young people in under-resourced communities.
Facing History’s Partner Schools Network is a connected group of more than 80 schools that embrace Facing History's core themes as foundational to their mission. These schools seek to engage students with rigorous interdisciplinary content and methodology that promotes academic skills as well as empathy and ethical awareness.
Backed by over 140 research studies, our approach is teacher-tested, meets state standards, and is responsive to the changing educational landscape.
