Why study history in high school?
History is often viewed as a “boring” subject—and sometimes with good reason! Many history classes focus on having students memorize seemingly endless lists of facts, rather than helping them understand why those facts are important.
But what if you found a history class that didfocus on the big-picture significance of historical events?
As a high school student, I studied in a variety of settings, including at home and online. I also spent a few years at a rigorous private high school, where I took many honors and AP* classes.

I enjoyed these classes, but I wish I could have taken more courses that strengthened my Christian worldview and broadened my understanding of life as a whole.

As a history major at Patrick Henry College, I found the depth and quality of Christian learning I had been looking for. I had the opportunity to study with Dr. Favelo, who designed PHC Prep Academy’sAP World History course.

Dr. Favelo designed AP World History to teach students to think and write at a collegiate level. Students go beyond simply memorizing facts and learn to analyze and interpret them. They also learn about the philosophical and moral significance of historical events. The course helps students learn how to think, not justwhat to think.

As Dr. Favelo puts it in a video about the AP World History course, “Facts in and of themselves are not of much value unless they have an eternal perspective.”

I would have loved taking classes with PHC Prep in high school! My hope is that your family will be able to benefit from this great classroom experience. I encourage you to read this free download about our AP World History course to learn more.
