Hidden History in the District of Columbia

Grades 7-11

This week-long summer course is designed to appeal to middle and early high school aged students with an interest in history. Each day we will visit out-of-the-way historical sites in the DC area and learn about their historical and/or cultural significance. We will utilize these historical sites as jumping off points for authentic instruction about the history of our nation. Each stop will include an opportunity for downtime and exercise outside.

Travel will be provided and lunch will be at historical sites (weather permitting); students should bring their own lunch.
