The Baird Creek Preservation Foundation is pleased to present our environmental education classes for homeschool students. These student drop off classes will have a different topic each week, and the curriculum is designed to meet the Wisconsin State Science Standards for Grades 1-5. Please only register if you have a student in this grade range, 1-5. We ask that we are notified at least three days in advance, when possible, if you will be absent from class. There are no refunds for cancellations or absences from class. Refunds will only be issued for programs cancelled by Baird Creek Preservation Foundation due to low registration or weather conditions that will impede on the safety of students and our staff.
These classes spend a majority of the time outdoors exploring and focused on the topic of the day. Please make sure you send your student with appropriate clothes to spend their time outside in the weather (weather appropriate layers, rain boots or winter boots, hats, gloves, scarves, jackets) and a change of clothes to change when they come back inside. Class begins indoors and then everyone will get a chance to use the restroom and get ready to go outside, which means your student does not have to be fully dressed for the outdoors when they arrive.
We accept payment from virtual schools. If you have a student enrolled in a Virtual School, please select the pay by check option. You will receive an invoice for the amount of the semester and it is your responsibility to provide this to your virtual school.
