The Salem Witch Trials?

Question

In Massachusetts i know students learn about the Salem Witch Trials, because it's the state where it happened. I'm curious to know if they teach it in other states too? i'm pretty sure they do, but I don't know.

Answer 1

By the time I got to high school, for sure, I learned about it, although I have to say my school was short on analysis and long on memorization.

Answer 2

I grew up pre-NCLB in California and learned about it in elementary school.

Answer 3

Yeah I've learned about it I live in Iowa, and I've also been to Salem.

Answer 4

Yes, it's part of American History.

Answer 5

In most public schools they briefly cover it as part of basic American History, but they rarely go into much detail.
