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 will not make a difference if there is no bus money to get here.

The Roosevelt-Vanderbilt National Historic Site is expanding field trip opportunities for students to directly experience national parks, where natural and historic settings inspire powerful learning.

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.
