Notable Museums, Respected Organizations, and Trusted Experts
Our resources are developed and supported by a collaborative partnership among trusted history- and civics-focused museums and organizations, including Colonial Williamsburg, George Washington’s Mount Vernon, iCivics, and the National Constitution Center. In-service teachers author the instructional supports with guidance and final review from William & Mary education professors. Historians from the Organization of American Historians vet all materials and each video. All so you can pull assets from history.org knowing they’re reliable and credible.
