District Pre-Test

The code is:  WNXMUMW

There couldn't be a better year to study the American Government.  2016 will with no doubt provide the public with an election to remember.  It features two well known and divisive candidates topping both of the major party tickets.  This election has sparked questions across the country on issues that have long been forgotten; how do conventions work, what is the party's role in conducting fair primaries, how does the electoral process work, and what promises can a candidate constitutionally fulfill.  This year we will study these questions while examining the three major branches of government, the legislative, executive, and judicial.  We will also take a look at the undercurrents that help to form the government we live in today.  It is going to be a great year and I am excited to have you in class!
