Our Teacher Learning Center Goes Online!

The Phoebe Apperson Hearst Learning Center is a place for teachers to research 18th century American History, review curriculum kits, use the scholarly edition of the Papers of George Washington, and get custom packets of teaching resources to take back to their own classrooms. Teachers love to drop by the Learning Center while here on a field trip, but for those of you not taking Mount Vernon field trips this year we have now posted a complete bibliography of the resources in the Learning Center so that you can review our materials before you make the trip to the Learning Center.

Teachers may visit the Teacher Learning Center free of charge by announcing themselves at the desk of the Education Center. Please call 703-799-8602 with any questions.

Have you visited the Learning Center? Leave a comment and let us know what you think!

Portraits in Schools

Kids holding George Washington Portrait

Mount Vernon recently invited K-12 schools nationwide to request framed portraits of George Washington to display in a respectful, prominent place.

The response was overwhelming: thousands of schools submitted letters! Along with the portrait, schools received curriculum materials to help explore our first president’s contributions.
