All schools must bring one adult chaperone for every five students participating in the visit. Classroom teachers are not included in the 1-to-5 ratio.

Length of stay:  

(Allow at least 2 1/2 - 3 hours for your visit.)
In order to have time for a scheduled lunch time, it usually is necessary to stay the entire 3 hours during high volume days in the spring. If you are using a district bus, please check to see when the bus must be back in the district.

Does your group have any special needs? (If yes, please specify in the comments field at the bottom of the reservation form.)


Will your group be eating lunch during your visit?

 

Please select your mode of transportation:





We have two lunch spaces for people who bring their lunches. Each seats 30 people. The staff schedules lunch times for your field trip one week prior to your visit. Lunch is 20 minutes long and is based on arrival times and the number of students per each arrival. If you provide us with your fax number, we will fax that information to you when it is available.

In good weather we recommend eating lunch in our 200-seat outdoor amphitheater. There is a place to store lunches in the Education Center—please do not leave lunches in cars or buses. We recommend that you place your lunches in boxes clearly marked with the class teacher's name.

STUDENTS, TEACHERS AND CHAPERONES SHOULD NOT LEAVE THE PREMISES FOR LUNCH OR ANY OTHER REASON DURING THE VISIT.

Additional Questions or Comments:

Please be prepared to bring an accurate head count and payment details on the day of your visit. Review our teacher checklist for more information.

Payment:

You must arrange payment with your school or district prior to your visit. We accept checks, credit cards, or purchase orders.

Submit your reservation and someone from our Education staff will contact you as soon as possible.
