Museum Tours for Students

The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum offers docent-led museum tours designed to engage and inform students about Ronald Reagan's presidency and his legacy. Self-guided museum tours are available for educators who want to immerse their students in a more customized program. 



There are many exciting learning opportunities for you and your students here at the Reagan Library. The Ronald Reagan Leadership Academy allows students to experience firsthand the responsibilities and challenges faced by leaders in our government, military, and media as they are immersed in our award-winning critical decision simulation. As either a student or a teacher, you can join The Walter and Leonore Annenberg Presidential Learning Center and its commitment to engaging the future leaders of America and developing proactive informed, educated, and conscientious citizens and leaders. You can also call to schedule a class tour of the exhibits or attend one of our on-site Education Workshops.
