Homeschool Thursdays!

A student documents his archaeology discovery.

Ages 8- 12 Years

Thank you to everyone that have expressed interest and attended our Home School Classes.

Due to low enrollment, we are cancelling the classes for the remainder of the 2011-12 School Year.   We have listened to your suggestion to schedule these classes to a day other than Tuesday, and we will resume our classes on THURSDAY, September 6, 2012 at 12:30pm.

The classes have been restructured into 3 week sessions (costing an average of $25.00 for all three sessions) allowing each week to build upon the previous week, therefore developing a deeper understanding of the topic.

  • This averages into a cost of $5.55 per hour of instruction.
  • For students that attend all three sessions we have certificates of completion and we have started a badge program.
  • Our at home assignments lead to continued “outside of the classroom” exploration and longer retention between classes.
  • The 3 sessions allow for the elimination of superficial coverage and opens doors to pique our student’s curiosity and really let us explore the ‘how’ and ‘why’ of our topics.
Understandably – not everyone is interested in the same topic.   If there is a topic you would like for us to consider – please bring it to our attention.
Thank you so much for supporting the Discovery Center.   We look forward to seeing you at our other activities. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions and return to our web site for future information.
