We understand that student learning comes in many different settings from the classroom to home. In order to accommodate students of all learning backgrounds, we welcome homeschool groups to visit the museum and register for a curated field trip program.

As a State Aided Educational Institution, we offer free or reduced pricing for Maryland Homeschool Groups and host special homeschooler days at the museum.
