The Tracy Historical Museum provides two programs to enhance the California history curriculum for third grade students to learn about their local history; Third Grade Educational Tours at the museum and an 1876 day at the historic Lammersville School.
Historic Museum. Visiting classes of third graders come to the museum on Monday mornings during the school year. When they arrive at the museum, each class is divided into four small groups to tour the museum and learn about local history. Volunteer docents assist each group of students as they view the museum exhibits and try their hand at quilting, script writing, tin punching and making butter. The 1876 Lammersville School was saved by members of the West Side Pioneer Association and moved into the City of Tracy on February 1, 2001. In moving the school building into the city to its current location in Clyde Bland Park, located at 1753 Blandford Lane, the building became property of the City of Tracy. The West Side Pioneers operate a program for third grade students to experience what a school day was like for children in 1876. |
