The Queen Mary is one of the most significant historical sites in California, where students have the opportunity to explore a wide variety of subject areas.  Our history program is focused on the needs of high schools, as set forth in the California state standards for education:

 

 

 

"Students in grade ten study major turning points that shaped the modern world, from the late eighteenth century through the present, including the cause and course of the two world wars (Grade 10).

 

Students in grade eleven study the major turning points in American history in the twentieth century (grade 11)."

 

 

 

Our program is designed to meet graduation requirements and has been developed with input and support of teachers and school districts and departments of education. This will attract teachers to the field trip opportunity, satisfy state requirements for content and provide the youth with a perfectly unique “immersion” into history like no other venue.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sound Exciting? Want To Get Involved? We need your help!

 

Schools and districts are under budget pressures unlike any seen before. The Queen Mary has invited community agencies to help provide this much needed educational experience. Groups supporting the collaborative effort include the Steamship Historical Society of America, the Art Deco Society of Los Angeles and many other agencies and individuals. Join us in our effort to provide quality history education – let’s not let the students miss out just because of budgets. We plan to raise funds and volunteer support from the community to provide for costs related to this program.

 

We need to help with:

 

* School Bus Transportation * Lunches for Youth and Faculty * Staffing for the Educational Tour *

* Substitute Teachers * Printing and Collateral Materials * Volunteer Assistance with the Tours *
