Outreach in Virginia
Programs in Your Classroom
 The Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation offers hands-on, inquiry-oriented outreach programs that bring history to life in your Virginia classroom. The outreach education programs are endorsed by the National Council for the Social Studies, the nation's leading association of social studies educators, and assist teachers in meeting Virginia's Standards of Learning (SOL) at elementary, middle and secondary grade levels. The programs, in which students explore reproduction artifacts from Jamestown Settlement and the Yorktown Victory Center, are designed for an average class size and last approximately one hour.
Curriculum materials which contain background information and pre- and post-visit activities designed to foster an interdisciplinary approach to the subject matter, can be downloaded.
For additional information or to schedule an outreach program, contact group reservations and outreach education at (757) 253-4939 , fax (757) 253-4997, or email group.reservations@jyf.virginia.gov
Combine Your Outreach Visit with a Museum Visit:
The cost of an outreach program is $1.25 per student, or .75 per student for classes that take a field trip to Jamestown Settlement or the Yorktown Victory Center.
Complete and return the Outreach Scheduling forms to finalize your Outreach arrangements. Please return the forms at least two weeks in advance of your scheduled Outreach program.
