Nebraska standards alignment

Designed for high school. Below is every Nebraskastandard these courses cover: the exact code, the standard's own words, and the lesson that covers it. Where we only cover part of a standard, it says so, and says which part.

  • We mapped this ourselves. This alignment was done by ElementaryMBA against the published standards. It has not been reviewed, endorsed, or approved by Nebraska'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.

Nebraska Social Studies Standards — High School Civics

Nebraska Social Studies Standards, 2019 · High School Civics · approved November 8, 2019 · Nebraska Department of Education (NDE) / Nebraska State Board of Education · retrieved 2026-07-19

Nebraska's High School Civics standards are the anchor for the Nebraska Civics flagship. Nebraska writes its own standards (it is a non-adopter of the Common Core), and its civics standards are content-bearing: SS HS.1.1.e names state government (its own example set includes 'bicameral/unicameral'), which is a 1:1 home for Nebraska's defining one-house, nonpartisan Unicameral; SS HS.1.1.d hosts Nebraska's local government (its 93 counties, natural resources districts, and elected public-power boards); and the SS HS.1.2 standards host civic participation and media literacy. Transcribed verbatim from NDE's 2019 document (see the file header for the provenance note).

    Note: Squarely met by the BVC media-literacy method the standard's examples name (news media literacy, online civic reasoning): reading a source for accuracy, bias, omission, misleading statistics, and recurring fallacy is modelled and practiced across the catalog.

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:

  • SS HS.1.1.a (historical foundation of the Constitution) — not claimed. SS HS.1.1.a asks students to examine the historical foundation that influenced the creation of the U.S. Constitution (its example set names philosophers, social contract theory, natural rights, the Constitutional Convention, the Federalist and Anti-Federalist papers, and the Iroquois Confederation). The catalog teaches the Constitution's structure and its Articles, but not a named survey of its Enlightenment and Convention foundation, so we do not claim this indicator.
  • SS HS.1.1.f/g/h and SS HS.1.2.b/e — not claimed. We do not claim SS HS.1.1.f (supranational organizations: UN, NATO, EU, treaties), SS HS.1.1.g (the roles of political parties), SS HS.1.1.h (U.S. foreign policy), SS HS.1.2.b (patriotic symbols, songs, and holidays), or SS HS.1.2.e (how individuals, groups, and the media check governmental practices, via Watergate, the Civil Rights movement, and the Suffrage movement). The civics ladder teaches government structure and civic action, not international relations, party history, patriotic-symbol analysis, or the press-and-scandal history these indicators name.
  • High School Economics (SS HS.2.x) — deferred. Nebraska's High School Economics standards are personal-finance and market-economics heavy (cost-benefit and PACED decision-making, budgeting, banking, credit and debt, saving and investing, supply and demand). The catalog's commodity-economics content would map to a few market concepts, but Nebraska's economics standards are dominated by personal financial literacy this catalog does not teach, so we defer the economics discipline rather than pad the map.
  • Nebraska's Geography and History disciplines — deferred, not denied. The catalog's commodity, colonial, labor, civil-rights, and migration history and its Commodity Map geography WOULD map to Nebraska's High School Geography and History standards, as they do in other states. We mapped the High School Civics discipline this pass (the flagship's home) and DEFER the geography and history strands to a later pass rather than claim standards we have not yet transcribed and verified.
  • English/Language Arts — deferred (Nebraska is a non-adopter of the Common Core). Nebraska never adopted the Common Core; its Nebraska College and Career Ready Standards for English Language Arts are Nebraska's own. The shared Common Core ELA file therefore does not apply, and the rule is compare-before-aliasing. Nebraska's own ELA reading/writing standards were not fetched-and-verified this pass, so we defer them rather than cite text we have not confirmed verbatim. (The catalog's source-evaluation and media-literacy work is instead claimed against Nebraska's own civics media-literacy standard, SS HS.1.2.f.)
  • Mathematics — nothing. This catalog does no mathematics instruction, so it meets no Nebraska mathematics standard (Nebraska's math standards, like its ELA, are Nebraska's own rather than the Common Core).
  • Science — deferred (Nebraska's science is its own, not verbatim NGSS). Nebraska's 2017 science standards are Nebraska's own — NGSS-influenced but not verbatim NGSS — so our shared NGSS file does NOT apply and we do not blind-alias it. The one Earth-science-adjacent claim the catalog could support is deferred until Nebraska's own science document is fetched and verified.
