HomeSchool Academy Open House

Back to All HomeSchool

We are happy to once again hold the HomeSchool Academy Open House!

Welcome new families and welcome back existing families! 

We are happy to once again hold the HomeSchool Academy Open House! This event provides homeschool families an opportunity to preview the upcoming 2024 fall semester and get questions answered about HomeSchool Academy at Zoo Atlanta. This station-based exploration event will allow families to travel at their own pace and participate in hands-on activities similar to what their students might do during their homeschool semester, as well as talk to Education Team members about HomeSchool Academy and other Zoo educational opportunities. All activities will take place at the Conservation Action Resource Center (ARC) at the Zoo from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. During this event, families will be able to register for the semester; get their questions answered; and take part in engaging, science-based activities. After the event, attendees are welcome to explore the rest of the Zoo. Space for this event is limited, so be sure to register soon!  

We look forward to seeing you there!
