ABOUT CLOSE UP Project Close Up is a week-long study of how our federal government works. Students go to Washington, DC, and visit historic sites, see the tourist attractions and get a first-hand view of how our government works. Highlights include: visiting Congress in session, meeting with our two senators from Minnesota and our representative, seeing the Supreme Court in session, visiting the Library of Congress, listening in on congressional hearings, taking part in discussions and simulations on government activities, seeing the White House, and of course touring around Washington. |
