  • We mapped this ourselves. This alignment was done by Learn.WitUS against the published standards. It has not been reviewed, endorsed, or approved by Nevada's education authority or by anyone else.
  • Every code was fetched, then transcribed word for word. Each framework below shows the date its codes and text were retrieved from the publisher.
  • Standards get revised.A code can be renumbered or its wording changed without notice, and some states publish more than one live edition of the same document. Confirm anything you file against your own jurisdiction's current requirements, using the source links below.
  • We would rather claim less. Where the courses only partly cover a standard, this page says partially covered and explains the gap. Standards we considered and could not honestly claim are listed at the bottom, with the reasons.

Nevada Academic Content Standards for Social Studies — Grade 9-12 U.S. History (1877-Present)

Nevada Academic Content Standards for Social Studies, Revised September 2018 · Grade 9-12 U.S. History (1877-Present) · Nevada Department of Education (NDE) / Nevada State Board of Education · retrieved 2026-07-19

Nevada's Grade 9-12 U.S. History course (1877-Present), coded SS.9-12.US.<n>, spans the Gilded Age through the present. The BVC labor, migration, civil-rights, and trade history maps to its reform-movement, resistance, migration, and economic-policy standards. Nevada's own Nevada-history standards (SS.9-12.US.20-22), the war/diplomacy standards, and the identity/contributions standards are not claimed (see notClaimed). Transcribed verbatim from the NDE 2018 Social Studies Standards.

  • SS.9-12.US.14

    Partially covered
    Evaluate the impact of individuals and reform movements on the struggle for greater civil rights and liberties.

    Covered by

    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 16 · The colour bar: unions' own history of exclusion
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 17 · Randolph to Memphis: the labor half of the civil-rights movement
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 4 · Two ideas about who a union is for: the Knights and the AFL
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 5 · Haymarket, 1886
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 6 · Homestead, Pullman, and the weapon that actually broke strikes

    What we do and don't cover: Partial: the labor movement's reformers and the labor-to-civil-rights line — A. Philip Randolph, the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, and the March on Washington — are taught in depth. The full sweep of civil-rights reform movements is not.

  • SS.9-12.US.27

    Partially covered
    Analyze how resistance movements organized and responded to oppression and infringement of civil liberties, and evaluate the impact of the responses.

    Covered by

    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 4 · Two ideas about who a union is for: the Knights and the AFL
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 5 · Haymarket, 1886
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 6 · Homestead, Pullman, and the weapon that actually broke strikes
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 8 · The Triangle fire, 1911, and what it actually changed
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 6 · Homestead, Pullman (Eugene Debs and the socialist movement)
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 16 · The colour bar: unions' own history of exclusion
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 17 · Randolph to Memphis: the labor half of the civil-rights movement

    What we do and don't cover: Partial: how resistance movements organized is taught in depth for the labor movement — the Knights, the AFL, Haymarket, Homestead, Pullman, the Triangle fire and Debs — and the labor-to-civil-rights line. Other resistance movements are not the worked cases.

  • SS.9-12.US.43

    Partially covered
    Examine the effect of individuals, communities, businesses, and government on the economic policies and decisions of the U.S. over time.

    Covered by

    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 9 · 1935: the year organizing became a right (the Wagner Act)
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 10 · The hole in the law: who the Wagner Act left out
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 13 · Taft-Hartley, 1947: what the law took back
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 14 · PATCO, 1981, and reading the decline honestly
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 4 · Two ideas about who a union is for: the Knights and the AFL
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 5 · Haymarket, 1886
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 6 · Homestead, Pullman, and the weapon that actually broke strikes

    What we do and don't cover: Partial: government and organized labor's effect on economic policy is taught in depth — the Wagner Act, Taft-Hartley, and PATCO — as the advances and retreats of U.S. labor law. A general treatment of U.S. economic policy is not.

  • SS.9-12.US.44

    Partially covered
    Evaluate multiple factors that impact the U.S. economy over time, including but not limited to: trade, resources, labor, and monetary system.

    Covered by

    • · Mexico, Lesson 7 · Mexico rewrites its labor law, and the 68-year gap that explains why
    • · Mexico, Lesson 10 · The Rapid Response Mechanism: an international labor rule with teeth
    • · Mexico, Lesson 12 · The limits, honestly: the cases the United States lost
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 4 · Two ideas about who a union is for: the Knights and the AFL
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 5 · Haymarket, 1886
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 6 · Homestead, Pullman, and the weapon that actually broke strikes

    What we do and don't cover: Partial: two of the standard's named factors are taught in depth — trade (NAFTA→USMCA) and labor (the union movement's arc). Resources and the monetary system are not worked.

Nevada Academic Content Standards for Social Studies — Grade 9-12 World History & Geography (1300-Present)

Nevada Academic Content Standards for Social Studies, Revised September 2018 · Grade 9-12 World History & Geography (1300-Present) · Nevada Department of Education (NDE) / Nevada State Board of Education · retrieved 2026-07-19

Nevada's Grade 9-12 World History & Geography course (1300-Present), coded SS.9-12.WH.<n>. Its standards are framed as historical-thinking and thematic skills; the BVC commodity, colonial, labor, and Cold-War history exercises several of them on specific cases. Nevada's regime-change, war, religion, and identity standards are not claimed (see notClaimed). Transcribed verbatim from the NDE 2018 Social Studies Standards.

  • SS.9-12.WH.37

    Partially covered
    Compare different economic and labor systems within and across societies.

    Covered by

    • · Ep 5 · The Reciprocity Economy
    • · Ep 6 · Ceremony Meets the Market
    • · Ep 7 · Two Ways of Doing Economics
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 4 · Two ideas about who a union is for: the Knights and the AFL
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 5 · Haymarket, 1886
    • · The History of Unions, Lesson 6 · Homestead, Pullman, and the weapon that actually broke strikes

    What we do and don't cover: Partial: traditional (reciprocity) and market economies are contrasted directly and at length, and the labor system is taught through the union movement. A full comparison across the world's economic and labor systems is not.

What we don't claim

A standards page is only worth reading if the omissions are honest too. We looked at these and left them out:

  • Mathematics — nothing. This catalog does no mathematics instruction, so it meets no Nevada Academic Content Standard for mathematics.
  • Science — one partial claim, via the shared NGSS file. Nevada adopted the NGSS in February 2014 as the Nevada Academic Content Standards for Science, so our one honest science claim — HS-ESS3-1, partial — comes through the shared NGSS mapping with the limit stated on the entry. There is no laboratory work, investigation, or modelling in this catalog, and we will not claim more.
  • Nevada's own Nevada-history and civics detail that no single code captures. The Civics & Economics and U.S. History courses each carry Nevada-history standards (SS.9-12.CE.18/19, SS.9-12.US.20-22). CE.18 and CE.19 host the flagship as partial, but the Nevada Civics course teaches more of Nevada's own structure than any one code captures — the “None of These Candidates” ballot option, the biennial 120-day Legislature, the two-election amendment rule, the Gaming Control Board and Gaming Commission, the no-income-tax structure, and Carson City's consolidated city-county status. US.20-22 (Nevada's history and the evolution of Nevada's economy from 1877) are Nevada-specific history the catalog does not teach.
  • The political-media standards. SS.9-12.CE.30 and SS.9-12.CE.31 (the roles of U.S. media in shaping policy and political discourse, and the role of special-interest groups, lobbyists, and PACs), and SS.9-12.US.34 (the effects of media in shaping public perception and policies), are political-media and interest-group analysis. Our media-literacy course is consumer protection — reading ads and claims for omission and fallacy — not political-media analysis, so we do not claim these; the source-evaluation skill they share is claimed instead under the inquiry standards SS.9-12.CE.3 and SS.9-12.CE.5.
  • The disciplinary-skill and civic-disposition standards we checked and rejected. The disciplinary-skill standards that ask students to construct compelling/supporting questions, construct and present their own arguments, participate in rigorous academic discussions, and take deliberative action (SS.9-12.CE.1, .2, .4, .6-.12, and their US/WH equivalents) are procedures the courses exercise but do not deliver as a unit. On the content side, the Civics & Economics standards on political identity and ideology, founding-document interpretation over time, international relations, gerrymandering and redistricting, political behavior of population centers, immigration's effect on politics, and comparative political systems (SS.9-12.CE.13, .15-.17, .20, .21, .25, .26, .34, .37-.42), and the National Economy / Financial Literacy standards (SS.9-12.CE.45-.50, all of SS.9-12.FL) are not genuinely taught, so we do not claim them.
  • Most World History & Geography and U.S. History standards. The World History & Geography standards not mapped above (SS.9-12.WH.13-16, .18-25, .27-36, .39, .40) and the U.S. History standards not mapped above (SS.9-12.US.13, .15, .17-25, .28-42) are content or historical-thinking standards the courses do not exercise cleanly enough to claim. Where the catalog's globalization content overlaps SS.9-12.WH.40 and SS.9-12.US.42, it is claimed once under the closest fit (CE.53 / US.45) rather than padded across every near-duplicate.
  • The AI-literacy ladder, the language courses, and Learning How to Learn — deferred, not denied. Nevada's closest frameworks (Computer Science, World Languages) have not been fetched and verified yet. Our rule is fetch-or-don't-cite, so these courses carry no Nevada claims this pass.
