Advanced Homeschool Explorations

Advanced Homeschool Explorations is a monthly program geared towards higher education level homeschool children ages 11 – 16 years old. Every month, the children will embark on a captivating journey through a hands-on laboratory experiment, delving into engaging seasonal science topics and concepts. They will actively participate in data collection, conduct tests to validate hypotheses and hone their observational skills. Please come dressed for the weather, as a portion of each program is outdoors. This is a great chance to supplement at-home learning! We will walk approximately 1 to 1.5 miles on mixed gravel paths with some elevation change. You may choose to attend any or all programs in the series.
