The Bus Could Be On Us For Your Next Field Trip!

Hyde Park has a lot to offer students - the programs listed below for instance - but as you know only too well all the history, culture, and nature in the world don't do students or teachers much good without bus money to get here.

That's why the National Park Service and the FDR Presidential Library and Museum plan to cover bus fees for a limited number of students to visit Hyde Park during calendar year 2012. 

Education Programs (PDF-1.04mb) offered at the Home of Franklin D. Roosevelt National Historic Site.
