Isolationism

The next part of U.S. Foreign Policy that we will be researching is called Isolationism. Basically, what that means is...

Following our involvement in World War One, the United States entered a nearly two decade long period of isolation from world affairs. The result was not only a rejection of leadership and membership in international organizations, but a restricting of our borders and an anti-foreign feeling among society

Here are some links to help you learn more about this part of US Foreign Policy:

This is a very short unit, and should only take a couple of days. After that, we jump into WWII.

What are YOU Willing to Work For



As we start the 3rd trimester of our first year at WJPS, we've made some significant progress. We've still got a ways to go, however. We won't get to where we have to be without hard work.

Your assignment: What are the things that you are willing to work hard for?
