2024 Fall School Visits

With the new school year once again there are Charles County School trips to Port Tobacco. All of the trips include tours of the One-Room School House conducted by the Retired Teachers.

But second graders also get a chance to come to the Port Tobacco Courthouse and be introduced to archaeology.  Esther Read, Charles County Archaeologist, and CCASM members work with the students.  After an introduction to archaeology (normally given by Linda), the students are divided into two groups with one group washing artifacts for about ten minutes while the other group mends ceramics.  Then the two groups switch.  Always interesting to interact with the students.

The last school group visit of the year was on Monday October 28.  There were twenty-four second graders from  Dr. James Craik Elementary School.  Linda, Claudia, Elsie, Carol, and Esther worked with the students.

Friday October 25 sixteen second graders from Dr. Gustavus Brown Elementary School visited Port Tobacco. Elsie, Denise, Linda, and Esther worked with the students.
Thanks to Elsie for the info.

Wednesday October 2 was the first school visit for this year.  There were sixteen second graders from Malcolm Elementary School.  Linda, Denise, Claudia, Elsie, and Esther worked with the students.
Thanks to Linda for the info.
