Outreach Programs

All outreach program fees are per class and are discounted when class visits are scheduled to run consecutively. Teachers are encouraged to creatively schedule around lunch periods in order to accomplish this. If this is impossible, and a wait of more than 40 minutes between programs is necessary, then the same day discount cannot be offered and fee for the next class will be at the first class rate.

Programs included a variety of hands-on activities and topics correlated with Illinois State Learning Standards and the National Education Science Standards. The maximum class size for any program is 30 students.

The fee structure for all one-hour programs is as follows:

  • $85 for the first class.
  • $75 for the second class when scheduled consecutively.
  • $65 for each additional class when scheduled consecutively.

The fee structure for the two-hour Owls: Predators of the Night program is as follows:

  • $170 for the first class.
  • $150 for the second class when scheduled consecutively.
  • $130 for each additional class when scheduled consecutively.

Teachers are welcome to provide owl pellets; otherwise, there will be an additional charge dependent on the market cost at the time the program is scheduled.
