Pullman National Historical Park
Announcing a collaboration between Pullman National Historical Park and Expeditions in Education. This school year we will be partnering with PULL to bring school visits, professional learning experiences, and LiveStreams to Pullman National Historical Park. Our goal is to bring out the STEAM in learning for this one-of-kind national park site in Chicago, Illinois. The partnership aims to enrich education by connecting students and educators with the rich history of Pullman, where the interplay of industry and community provides a dynamic backdrop for learning.
Pullman National Historical Park is more than a mere relic of the past; it is an educational treasure trove that epitomizes the American spirit of innovation and the quest for social justice. Named for George Pullman, the park encapsulates the essence of the American industrial age, showcasing the profound shifts in production and labor relations. Here, educators and students will engage with the narrative of the Pullman Company and its workers, delving into the 1894 Pullman Strike's crucial lessons on labor rights and social reform. This collaboration will illuminate the significance of Pullman in American history, using its legacy to inspire and educate, while emphasizing the importance of integrating STEAM disciplines into the learning journey to foster a holistic understanding of historical and contemporary issues.
Below you find a few of our November events. If you miss out on these, we will be back in March for more. Reach out to Alex_Rubenstein@nps.gov or check out https://www.nps.gov/pull/learn/education/plan-a-field-trip.htm
