I had "US Government," probably in 11th or 12th grade. Again, I'd have to say that the history department in Bellefonte was surprisingly good. Could they maybe have taught more things? I suppose, but they got the 3 branches of government, the powers of each, certain landmark supreme court cases, the Constitution, the significance of each section, each amendment, how they've been interpreted by the supreme court, the development of the political party system, tricks that politicians tend to use to stack the decks in their favor, & even assisted with voter registration, if you were 18 or over. I'd say that's pretty damn good just for a general overview of how government works, & the internet constantly reminds me that I learned things that most people don't. A lot of this was also covered at certain points in "social studies," during middle school.
