Description

As the agency reported it.

Launched in 2017, the program provides field trips to pre-k through grade 12 students from low-income homes by providing transportation support when needed and an engaging museum learning experience aligned with DC public school learning standards. Each student also receives an age appropriate book and a passport, which may be taken to different museums and stamped. During the 2018/2019 school year, three outreach fellows will develop additional resources for teachers and students and conduct outreach to 87 schools, helping the program serve 25 percent more students than in previous years. In addition to the work of expanding the program, museum staff will establish a program committee, including community partners, local teachers, school administrators, and other stakeholders, to review the program and help develop a framework for continued success.
