Educational programs and tours at the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and Museum teach students about topics in Texas history such as early Ranger history, modern crime scene technology and major figures in Ranger history. We also provide a CSI program for younger students that gives them the opportunity to solve a robbery using similar methods to Texas Rangers. Students can explore the galleries on their own utilizing the museum’s scavenger hunt and watch a 45-minute video presentation during self-guided tours. All museum tours and programs align with TEKS.
