They outline important topics, skills, and understanding students should develop at various grade levels, covering key historical events, concepts, and the ability to analyze sources critically. These standards aim to promote a coherent and comprehensive history education, fostering historical thinking, civic understanding, and cultural awareness, ensuring students gain a well-rounded grasp of the nation's past and its ongoing significance.
