Build a rich foundation in government, ethics, economics, and civic life with Alveary's Charlotte Mason Citizenship curriculum for U.S. students in grades 7–12. Each grade weaves together several strands that deepen year over year. Plutarch's Lives introduces students to 2,000-year-old biographies that have shaped thinkers from Montaigne to Shakespeare, helping students evaluate the characteristics of a good citizen. Government study begins in Grade 7 with Canada's electoral process, parliamentary government, the Canadian legal system, and local and provincial authorities. Grade 8 covers Canada's constitutional monarchy and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, followed by an introduction to personal finance and economics. Grade 9 continues with Canada's constitutional monarchy alongside further Plutarch study. Grades 10–11 survey Canada's Prime Ministers through The Prime Ministers: Canada's Leaders and the Nation They Shaped, alongside economic theory. Grade 12 completes the sequence with basic economics and civics topics including political engagement, relationships in a technological world, and the conscience. Ethics runs through all six years beginning with Charlotte Mason's Ourselves. Weekly Current Events and Community Read Alouds round out each year.
