Home to unparalleled heritage, vibrant cultural and performing arts, great outdoor adventures and more, Virginia is a favorite choice for traveling educators and their students! The state is known as the gateway to the south and is covered by the Allegheny and Blue Ridge mountains—with the great Shenandoah Valley falling in between—and boasts an Atlantic Ocean coastline. Virginia is also home to more U.S. presidents than any other state!
Student will love being able to step foot onto the grounds of a number of historic sites they’ve likely learned about in the classroom. Many of these notable locations have roots in the beginnings of the U.S., including Colonial Williamsburg and the Jamestown Settlement.
Natural beauty also abounds. In Norfolk alone students will find 144 miles of shoreline with plenty of opportunities to get out on the Elizabeth or Lafayette River or the Chesapeake Bay! Virginia Beach also offers an abundance of fun and learning, whether it’s the Virginia Beach Surf and Rescue Museum, Cape Henry Lighthouse (the first federally funded lighthouse in the country), the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center and more.
If performance opportunities are on your radar, Virginia delivers in a big way, from performing aboard the battleship Wisconsin at the Nauticus to the popular Music in the Parks Festival or Virginia Arts Festival (Virginia International Tattoo).
