The Arkansas Historic Preservation Program (SHPO) has two full-time staff persons working with heritage education programs and services, to offer a variety of state, community, and site specific materials to teachers. These include comprehensive collection (Curriculum Binder) of interdisciplinary lesson plans developed as supplementary materials for teachers who wish to explore new approaches to state history studies. A listing of free slide programs on historic architecture is available from the SHPO along with an "archi-blocks" loan set, and "Tales from the Crypt," a packet on historic cemeteries. In-service credit workshops are also offered on an annual basis during the summer and school year at no cost to the teachers. Because of the growing demand by students and teachers for state and historic preservation related programs and services, the AHHP plans to expand its educational offerings and materials.
