  • At what time do you plan to leave the Aquarium?
  • I.e. "Our school's four fifth grade classrooms are all attending this field trip together."
  • i.e. "Ms. Henley's class, Mr. Smith's class;" "Red team, Blue team;" etc. This will help Aquarium educators communicate with students as they divide into groups.
  • PLEASE READ: We require a chaperone ratio of 1 adult per 5 students for grades PreK-8, and 1 adult per 10 students for grades 9-12. Groups with fewer than the required chaperone ratio may be restricted from areas like the touch pools and gift shop.
  • We offer a variety of books, curricula, and kits that can be used before a visit to build excitement or as a follow up to build on your aquarium experience. Our education department is happy to make recommendations based on your learning goals. Check out the tools available in our Teacher Resource Library.
