I'm planning a self-guided high school student visit to the Supreme Court. What essential information do I need regarding entry, hours, security, and transportation? What educational activities are recommended for this age group, and how do I arrange lunch for my group at the on-site cafe?
Navigate to the 'VISIT' section of the website. Access the 'Group Visits' page to find general entry procedures, building hours, and transportation details. Go to the 'Prohibited Items' page to understand security screening and restrictions. Visit the 'Activities for Students & Families' page to identify suitable educational materials for high school students. Navigate to the 'Café & Building Amenities' page to confirm dining options and group lunch arrangements. Synthesize all collected information into a concise answer addressing the user's questions.
State that group visits are self-guided and do not require reservations. Provide the building hours (Monday-Friday, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.). Explain that visitors undergo magnetometer and x-ray screening, and should review prohibited items. State that private buses/vans are not accessible, and suggest Metro/Union Station parking. List 'Activity Booklet' (grades 5-12) and 'Games & Puzzles' as recommended educational activities. Confirm the Supreme Court Café is available for dining. State that the Supreme Court Café should be contacted directly for group lunch arrangements.
