Students and Teachers

Our virtual field trips for grades 3–12 will return in October. 

These inquiry-based activities explore the history of the World Trade Center, the events of 9/11, the role that first responders played, and the many ways the country has changed in a post-9/11 world. 

Offered every year on and around the 9/11 anniversary, this interactive program connects participants with Museum staff and guest speakers to learn about the attacks and the importance of commemoration. 

The 9/11 Memorial & Museum offers a collection of first-person accounts of the attacks and their aftermath as a part of the annual Anniversary in the Schools webinar program.

Teacher workshops address the challenges of teaching difficult content and explore interdisciplinary connections to your curriculum through Museum tours, hands-on activities, and group discussion. The 9/11 Memorial & Museum is an approved CTLE sponsor.

The Teen Ambassador program is a yearlong, stipend-based, afterschool experience for students entering grades 10 to 12. It offers a behind-the-scenes look into the 9/11 Memorial & Museum and the ongoing issues raised by 9/11.
