The 500 Festival & Indianapolis 500 Education Program, presented by Riley Children's Health, is a free program for Indiana fourth-grade classrooms that immerses students in the world of the Indianapolis 500 and the 500 Festival! Participating fourth-grade classrooms have the opportunity to attend a Study Trip that takes place at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in April. During the visit, students will put classroom lessons into action at interactive, hands-on educational stations located around the track.
Unfortunately, not all schools are able to visit the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, so we are taking the Study Trip to them!
