Fun and interactive!
National Park Service rangers use living history items, museum exhibits and other resources to bring history to life for students and scouts. MEPs are developed to meet local, state and national curriculum guidelines for social studies and language arts.

Thirty-day advance reservations are required. New! Call 877.982.1410, ext. 0 to make reservations.

Oh, and the best part; MEPs are FREE! Thanks to our cooperating partnership with Jefferson National Parks Association, education programs and resources are funded through sales at the Museum Store, Levee Mercantile and Old Courthouse Gift Shop. There is a boarding fee for programs aboard the Gateway Arch Riverboats.
