Education

The battlefield of Palo Alto is much more than just a scene of conflict. The site is also an ideal atmosphere for learning. The broad field with its surrounding brush and thickets typifies the forbidding, yet often beautiful landscape of south Texas. The staff hopes to make this important site into your classroom and laboratory where human and natural history will come alive for your students.
