Classes for high school students
Grab your sneakers and your curiosity—we’re heading out on a series of unforgettable day trips to explore epic stories and iconic places across the state. Follow the trail of midnight riders at Minuteman National Park, step aboard a legendary ship at the USS Constitution Museum, and roam Boston's cobblestone streets. We'll dive into the world of whales and whalers in New Bedford, visit the textile mills of Lowell, and check out the JFK Library and the Kennedy Institute to explore bold ideas and big decisions. Walk the paths of rebels, sailors, presidents, and changemakers—and see how their stories continue to shape the world.
Itineraries are tentative and subject to change based on availability and weather.
