Fort Stanwix National Monument - For Teachers (U.S. National Park Service)

It is learning and fun time, 3 scenes of children interacting with a soldier or a ranger around red cannons, wooden rooms, and with wooden muskets. All have smiles on their faces.

Park rangers give various educational programs to the many different children who enter the gates of the fort. NATIONAL PARK SERVICE PHOTOS

2008-2009 Education Program Overview

Dear Teacher,

Thank you for your interest our Fort Stanwix National Monument Education Programs. In the the pages that follow, you will find comparisons of the main programs we offer at your grade
level(s). Please consider carefully what you would like your students to gain from participation in a program at Fort Stanwix, and that should save you time in your decision-making process.

You will also find a couple of suggestions on self-guided options if you have more time to spend at the site before or after your program. Although it is not a requirement that you reserve times for the self-guided activities, it is nice for our staff to have a heads-up as to the extent of a plan to visit for your particular school accordingly, for coverage of areas based on potential visitation.

Interested? We are accepting reservations for Ranger Guided Programs in the 2008-2009 for this school year.***
You can call the park at 315-338-7730 or e-mail the Education Coordinator with any questions, or to schedule your visit.

***It is highly recommended that all teachers make their reservations before the Christmas Break to ensure your classroom is given adequate attention and that the staff of Fort Stanwix has proper time to prepare for your visit.
