Homeschool Programs

Homeschool ZooClass is a four-session series of classes designed for homeschool families and based on our most popular thematic programs. Projects worked on throughout the four sessions encourage both individual and group learning, while providing students with the opportunity to take an extended and interdisciplinary look at the wonders of the Zoo! Homeschool ZooClass registration is non-refundable and non-transferable.

Students will also spend time doing projects and activities, meeting ambassador animals, and exploring the Zoo.
