Teachers

At the Kentucky Historical Society, school programs are based on the belief that learning about the past can be engaging and meaningful and fun! Education staff offer student programs that promote an understanding and appreciation of the state's diverse heritage. Teacher services help educators find and use heritage resources at all grade levels.
