Homeschool Education

Homeschool Animal Encounter Program

This program was designed with your diverse, mixed-age homeschool group in mind!  Your homeschooler’s senses are ignited as they are lead on a 1-hour guided exploration of the grounds by one of our naturalists. During this program, students will explore the various ecosystems around the center and make several stops to meet and learn about a few of our live educational animals.  Groups larger than 10 will be split into 2 groups; groups larger than 20 will be split into 3 groups.  Only 2 adults will be permitted to accompany each group.

Cost: $9/child (minimum of 10)

Payment: Only 1 payment transaction permitted – we accept checks and credit cards.  Charter funding will not be accepted for this program.  A credit card number is required to make a reservation. If there is a no show or a cancellation within two weeks of your scheduled program date, the minimum fee of $90 will be automatically charged to your card on file.

Scheduling: Scheduling for this program is based on available weekday openings. Please contact the Education Director with a few preferred date options. Check your calendar and the calendars of everyone else who will be coming BEFORE scheduling. Your program reservation is not official until you receive your confirmation and invoice.
