Here are 3 reasons to consider planning school trips to Washington DC during the 'off' season.

Avoid the long wait lines and traffic delays. With less visitors you and your students won't have to rush. With reduced travelers in the city it makes seeing all of the key places easier and also to spend more time.
You also get to see more of the city as you can then get to places faster and with less wait take your time.
