The Aquarium of the Pacific would like to invite Homeschool networks, students, parents, and teachers to the Aquarium for our Annual Homeschool Days on September 23rd and 24th, 2009. Homeschool groups will receive the group rate of $6 per participant. While the Aquarium will be open to the general public, no classroom-based school trips will be booked during these days. This will allow our educators to bring you ocean related activities and biofacts throughout the Aquarium from 9 a.m.-noon, although you are welcome to explore the Aquarium through the afternoon. These engaging learning stations will allow students of all ages to experiment, investigate, and discover marine habitats and concepts. We hope that you will take this opportunity to come and see what the Aquarium of the Pacific has to offer. Program participation requires advance booking with the Aquarium’s Guest Support Center. Call (562)951-1630 for more details.
