Homeschool? Traditional classroom? Fort Smith National Historic Site offers several wonderful educational opportunities. These programs are designed to present history in a meaningful way for today's student.
While self-guided tours offer the most flexibility, ranger guided tours are the most popular educational choice. Scheduling in advance will give your students direct interaction with a member of our park's interpretive team.
NOTE: Touring with a member of the interpretive team is subject to availability, please schedule as far in advance as possible. May is our most popular month for program tours so plan accordingly.
