Studying National Parks is a History Standard for Massachusetts fourth graders. There are 15 National Parks in Massachusetts and other National historic sites, scenic trails,the Cape Cod National Seashore and much more  for you to visit and enjoy with your 4th grader.  A list of the parks can be found at this link:

The pass is good for the 2018-2019 school year.  More information about the program can be found at this link:  https://www.everykidinapark.gov/

Have fun and go explore!  As they say, Massachusetts IS US history!

Here’s how it works:

• *Available Now!* Starting September 1st, you’ll head to https://www.everykidinapark.gov/.
• Have your child answer the short questions that follow.
• You’ll be able to print a pass when you’re done – that’s it!

It’s important to note that you MUST bring the printed ticket with you to exchange for your annual pass. They cannot accept electronic copies.
