WASHINGTON D.C. – Multiple Arkansas students are getting a special chance to experience the nation’s history thanks to the Arkansas Martin Luther King Jr. Commission.
The many Natural State students attending the trip said they’re thankful to be part of the Arkansas Martin Luther King Jr. Commission’s Dream Keeper’s Tour in Washington D.C.
“These experiences and the Martin Luther King Commission bringing us on this has just been amazing,” White Hall High School student Hayden Raburn said. “I just love this trip so far.”

The students have visited multiple different museums and monuments, including Dr. King’s.
“I really like how they have all his quotes on this wall right here and we were able to read him,” Makya Terry noted.
Getting a tour of the U.S. Capitol was also a high note for many students.
“I really like going into the big room where the dome is in the Capitol because the paintings are amazing,” WHHS student Gaige Caskey said.
