OPTIONAL RESOURCES

Upon submission of your field trip request, your class will automatically be scheduled for a Classroom Presentation ($25, 1 hour) and Educational Kit ($15 per week). The classroom presentation will be scheduled for one week before your field trip at 1 p.m. and you will receive your Educational Kit during the presentation, which will be due back at the time of your field trip. This is the recommended configuration to maximize the impact of the full program.
