I have the privilege of working with students and teachers here at Monticello! If you're interested in learning more about our school programs, the tremendous resources available for educators, or just have a question and need some direction, please don't hesitate to ask.
My favorite spot at Monticello: the view from Mulberry Row.
Thank you to all the young scholars and family members who turned out for Monticello’s 3rd annual Home Educators’ Day! Nearly 600 people joined us under beautiful sunny skies for a day of fun and activities all around the mountaintop and in the classrooms of the Carl and Hunter Smith Education Center.
Below are some of our favorite shots from the day. You can share Home Educator Day photos of your own by adding them here.more »
Mary, thanks for your question. The Visitor's Center opens at 10AM on Home Educators' Day; that is in keeping with our winter hours. We look forward to welcoming students and their families then!more »
I have SUCH fond memories of reading Jean Fritz's "Can't You Make Them Behave, King George?" and it was a real treat to read it again, as an adult. You can't beat those illustrations - now I want to go back and find my childhood copy! more »
Samantha,

David - I truly enjoyed this post and, since reading it, often think of Peter--and the gentleman from the Bronx--when I'm on Mulberry Row. Thank you for sharing these stories.more »
