Stockton high school offers Filipino American studies in place of US history

Original: A Stockton high school lets students take Filipino American studies instead of US history. It is now in its second year

Cesar Chavez High School in Stockton, California is running Filipino American Studies as a full alternative to US History, with students able to take the course in place of the standard requirement. The program is now in its second year, and the district was the first in California to offer such a class. The course highlights Filipino American history and contributions, which are often left out of standard curricula.

Why now: The course is a rare, possibly first-of-its-kind alternative to US history in California, drawing attention to ethnic studies in education.
