Colonial National Historical Park (NHP) has been providing educational programs for students K-12 since 1974. Focusing on Virginia’s Standards of Learning (SOLs) requirements, Colonial NHP offers educational programs for both Jamestown (the site of the establishment of the first permanent English settlement in North America) and Yorktown (the site of the last major battle of the American Revolutionary War).
Groups can take advantage of either classroom-style programs or ranger-led walking tours, either of which can be reserved for available weekdays from October through May. There is a $30.00 fee for each program.
Groups unable to take part in a ranger-led program can explore either historic site on their own. Although Colonial NHP is a National Fee Area, educational institutions are eligible for an entrance fee waiver. For more information about Colonial's Educational Programs and how to obtain an Educational Entrance Fee Waiver click on the more link to the right.

Did You Know?
The botanical sassafras is a deciduous tree in the family Lauraceae, native to eastern North America and eastern Asia. In the 17th century it was worth its weight in gold as a medicinal plant and was an early Jamestown export. Sassafras has been used in the manufacture of Root Beer.
