Education Outreach|
The Surratt House Museum offers a variety of museum-based and outreach programs
for schools, camps, day care facilities, and boy-scout and girl-scout groups.
Educational programs are developed for children ranging between 5-18 years of
age. Depending on the program selected, the museum emphasizes two main topics:
1) The involvement of Mary Surratt and her family in the Lincoln assassination.
2) Daily life in Prince George’s County, Maryland during the
mid-19th century.
All educational programs are presented by museum educators attired in period clothing.
The programs support the observation, analytical and decision-making skills listed
within the Maryland Voluntary State Curriculum. For information on the specific
