K-12 Field Trips
At Ashland, students learn from experiencing an authentic historic site. The history of Ashland spans over two hundred years of local and national importance. Students can compromise with the Great Compromiser Henry Clay, take a stand with suffragist Madeline McDowell Breckinridge, or learn from the resilience of Charlotte Dupuy, one of the people enslaved at Ashland.
On-site field trips can be customized and are available for:
- Signature Henry Clay Tour
- Women’s Voices Tour
- Traces: Slavery at Ashland Tour
Ashland’s Education Department can adapt its curriculum based tour to address the accessibility, developmental or academic needs of all students.
