The South Carolina Founding Principles Act requires the study of the United States Constitution, the Federalist Papers, and “the structure of the government and the role of separation of powers and the freedoms guaranteed by the Bill of Rights” to be added into statewide social studies programs.
This bill, signed June 1, reinforces South Carolina’s Section 59-29-120 that required all public education students, both in high school and in college, to pass a test after a year-long class on the founding documents and principles.
The Founding Principles Act bolsters the existing law by adding an accountability clause requiring the State Department of Education to report to the House and Senate Education Committees as well as the Public Works Committee every two years. This report will outline how South Carolina educators are teaching the documents in their classrooms.

Should be done in every state.
Damn right!
Funny this is coming from a governor that is a NWO hack who seeks to destroy US sovereignty and our economy by mass migration of refugees.
Wow what a concept! Any child that lives in this country needs to be taught about the foundation of America. If they do not participate or fail the course they shouldn't graduate period.
What ever happen to American History class?
2:08 I'm sure they will be taught that these were all trash documents and priciples established by entitled white men that were all slave holders. Then they will learn why NWO socialism is far superior and why the constitution is just an outdated document. Also 1:28 and 1:48 I wouldn't start cheering just yet.
Excellent, maybe Maryland will be next
Founding documents.....any fine print about the Confederate Flag waving? Just sayin...
She is a fake American and fake Republican. She was quick to to do away with the Confederate Battle Flag and very quick to destroy Southern Ameicans. I hope she never gets elected to another office again.
I thought it was mandatory in school. NO WONDER WHY WE HAVE SO MANY PEOPLE WHO THINK COMMUNISM IS SO GREAT. This used to be required of LEGAL IMMIGRANTS also, I hope it is still a requirement. Our Constitution is what makes this country exceptional!!!
It just makes me wonder about what actually is required learning in our schools. Don't you think that the objectives should be published for all of us to know?
Maryland around has it in the high school curriculum, foundations of american government for 10th graders. It's required to graduate and you have to pass a HSA test ( high school assessment ) which you also have to pass to graduate.
Sad this needed to be made a law for kids to be taught it.
