•  I want to bring my 6th graders again next fall! The Heritage field trip was an exceptional experience for our 6th graders.  Students collaborated and communicated while working on the hands-on pre-dig activity as well as in the dig pit. Lots of learning and lots of fun." Thank you so much for an awesome educational experience."
