School Tours

The College Park Aviation Museum has developed curriculum-based school tours structured for Maryland's Voluntary State Curriculum (VSC). At the bottom of the page, you'll find a link to a list of outcomes for all subjects that each tour meets for specific grades. The College Park Aviation Museum has interactive, hands-on exhibits, and is an excellent way to take learning out of the classroom.

At the Museum, there are historic aircraft, including a replica of the 1910 Wright B aeroplane, a 1916 Curtiss "Jenny," a 1932 Monocoupe 110, a 1946 Ercoupe, a 1936 Taylor "Cub" and the 1924 Berliner Helicopter No. 5. There is also an animatronic Wilbur Wright, computer flight simulators, wind tunnels, interactive kiosks, video exhibits and much more.

We offer two tours to school groups for different grade levels. Each tour is designed to address Maryland VSC's and is appropriate for each grade level.

Museum Trip Information: School tours are available Mondays through Fridays from 9:30 am to 2:30 pm. Tours must be scheduled in advance by calling 301-864-6029, TTY 301-699-2544. Tours are typically 1-½ to 2 hours long. Museum admission is $2 per student, with 2 adults admitted FREE, and $3 per each additional adult. Additional chaperones are encouraged.
