Jimmy Carter National Historic Site - Plains High School
The high school is just one part of the Plains, Georgia site which also includes the train depot and the farm where Jimmy Carter spent his childhood. The high school, which is a museum and visitor center, has displays covering Jimmy's and Rosalynn's lives from childhood through their young married days, campaigns for political office, and continuing work for human rights but skipping the presidency. There’s also a 25 minute video in the wonderfully restored school auditorium.
Everything is accessible. The aisles in the auditorium are very wide and wheelchairs will fit anywhere. The main entrance has steps. A ramped entrance is located in the rear of the building. We didn’t see any signs pointing the way but if you follow the signs on the street with directions to the RV/bus parking you’ll find the rear lot. Follow the sidewalk to the entrance.
Visitors with large RVs should follow the signs for RV parking. The RV parking area is just a couple of lots behind the school and most RVs will have to be parked lengthwise across several spaces. Smaller RVs will fit in the lot in front of the school. Visitor Center

LOL, I find it amusing that they skipped his presidency :).
ReplyDelete:D I think that they skipped it because there's a new Jimmy Carter Presidential Library and Museum in Atlanta. We haven't seen that one yet but it's on the list!
