Distance Learning Programs

Visit the National Archives without leaving your school or home!

Beginning with the 2026-2027 school year, our distance learning programs will merge with our Civics for All of Us offerings to create a unified virtual programming experience and enhance access to the National Archives’ learning experiences and resources.

Reservations for the upcoming school year will open in August 2026. Please visit civics.archives.gov at that time for more information about program offerings.

For questions and to request your program, email civics@nara.gov. 

ASL interpreters are available with at least 14 business days' advance notice.

​K–12 Programs

Our standards-based, interactive programs feature historical documents, photographs, maps, posters, and other primary sources.
