Class visits start with an age-appropriate discussion with a trained school guide who is also a member of the 9/11 community. The guide will detail their experience and share a message of empathy and empowerment with the students to encourage them to pay it forward through acts of service and kindness. After the guide’s presentation, students will be able to go on a self-guided tour of the Museum. Class visits cover up to 35 students per class free of charge. Learn more and register(Open external link).
