Hands-On History is a new, project-based educational program for middle and high school students aged 11 – 16 years. The program is cumulative and offers students the opportunity to create a unique exhibit display for summer 2025 in the Watkins Community Gallery.
Content and lessons are adapted from the Facing History & Ourselves curriculum, and designed to provide an engaging environment for students to gain critical thinking skills and engage in reflective discussion about historic events and their local community.
Enrollment & Cost: Class registrations may be purchased by the school year, September to May, or for individual classes. Registration fees are per child and are $75 for the school year or $8 for individual classes. Register by contacting Education Coordinator Shannon Hodges at [email protected] or 785-841-4109.
