     Although the content of this course will include the discussion of warfare, we will be focused on the academic understanding of military conflict. We won’t be showing any graphic images, descriptions, or depictions of violence, or focusing on the morality or politics of these conflicts or warfare in general. Naturally, parents should use their judgement and understanding of their individual learner to decide if the course is right for them! If you have any concerns or questions about the content of the class, feel free to contact me and I will be happy to get back to you.
