Expanding the Reach of AmeriTowne
On the Road brings our flagship educational program, Young AmeriTowne, to small schools and rural communities outside the Denver metro area. The program uses the same curriculum and culminating experience as our “classic” locations in Denver and Belmar. Students study a 6-8 week curriculum at school, taught by their teachers, before running their own Towne for a day. The intimate AmeriTowne experience occupies a local community center or business and features nine shops. AmeriTowne On the Road is perfect for school groups with 25-60 students.
5th Grade Teachers, Needham Elementary, Durango
Ameritowne On the Road ignited an enthusiasm for real-life skills that my students hadn’t been exposed to within their regular classroom setting. Students were excited to challenge themselves, and scarcely realized they were learning. I highly recommend this program to other educators as a “rite of passage” for 5th grade students.
