Welcome to Mr. Budetti's website dedicated to the study of our American government.
The course is broken into 11 units of study for the year-long course. The AP test is given in May each year, and students have had some success at this endeavor. Below, you will find the units of study for this class and links that may be helpful.
The AP Government & Politics: United States course provides an analytical perspective on government and politics in the United States. This course involves both the study of general concepts used to interpret U.S. politics and the analysis of specific case studies. It also requires familiarity with the various institutions, groups, beliefs, and ideas that constitute U.S. political reality.
Units 1-11 links are at the bottom of the page!
