Family Tour – November 2022

Oct 6, 2022

Experience Capitol Hill as it was 100 years ago. Designed to satisfy the curiosity of elementary school age children, this tour was developed by CHRS President and Capitol Hill mom, Angie Schmidt. We’ll keep it short – no more than an hour – to keep it comfortable for young tour-goers. Be prepared to walk in any weather; a raincoat or umbrella may be necessary. Comfortable shoes are a must.

Someone MIGHT have also parked their bicycle here 100 years ago – do you know why?

Ever wonder how much or how little has changed in elementary education in the last 100 years?
