Homeschool Day

Homeschool Days at the Virginia Zoo are back for the fall! Join us in September for a variety of pop-up educational opportunities around the Zoo! We will have a series of animal chats, enrichment, and encounters happening throughout the day that will be accessible to learners of most ages.

This event is included with admission and does not require special registration. If you are purchasing tickets, there is a homeschool discount that can be found here. For the homeschool discount, you will need to show a Notice of Intent or similar documentation at the ticket booth when you arrive. If you have questions about appropriate documentation, please reach out to our membership and field trips department.

The schedule of events will not be released to the general public! You will receive the schedule automatically by email if you use the homeschool discount. If you are using a Zoo membership or other discount, please email the Education Department to request a copy no earlier than September 19. Printed copies will also be available the day of. We can’t wait to see you!
