Here’s a sample list of some of the many attractions and activities the students will see and do on this trip. This trip is going to be so much fun and the students are going to learn so much!
Our trip includes a stop at the Pentagon Memorial where students will walk through the site that honors the 184 victims who died during the September 11, 2001 attacks at the Pentagon. The memorial shows the timeline of these victims’ ages ranging from just 3 years old to age 71.
Students will walk in the footsteps of our nation’s leaders as they explore Capitol Hill. Tour the underground tunnels to see where lawmakers meet, take in the miles of books at the Library of Congress, and sit on the steps of the highest court in the land, the U.S. Supreme Court.
Read some of Jefferson’s famous writings and gain a new respect for his foresight he had while writing the Declaration of Independence. Discuss how this first Secretary of State impacted the way America developed as a nation.
Experience the memorial dedicated to the nation’s most famous civil rights activist who preached tolerance regardless of race, belief, or class. Become inspired by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s powerful writings that nurtured love across a nation. Students will have the opportunity to take turns reciting the words of Dr. King’s famous “I have a dream” speech.
Ride the subway to Lower Manhattan and take a ferry to Liberty Island, where you will visit the most iconic monument dedicated to freedom in the world. She greets newcomers to New York from her place in the New York Harbor.
Take time to reflect as you visit the twin pools paying tribute to the nearly 3,000 victims of the September 11, 2001, attacks. Learn about how America changed forever from that day forward.
