I graduated from high school in Pennsylvania and we were required to have American History/Pennsylvania History as requirements for graduation. We also had 4 years of Phys Ed, 4 years of Health Ed, 4 years of English ... all necessary for graduation.
We learned PA history and US History. Gosh, we even had to know the names of all the guys in Kennedy's cabinet.
And, yes, we learned what a Natural Born Citizen was as an eligibility requirement for President.
Not sure when the dumbing down took place but this was PA in the early 60s.
