Do you love science and nature? Do you want to see what the Hitchcock Homeschool program is all about? Sign up for our Discovery Days, our one-time programs about science and nature. In a mixed-age setting, we explore cool topics at the Hitchcock Center, meet science experts, and sometimes go on field trips. Our Discovery Day programs are appropriate for everyone from first-time to veteran homeschoolers, and we welcome almost-6 year olds who are interested in joining our class in the fall. All programs begin and end at the Hitchcock Center, even on field trip days.

How Sweet It Is: Making Maple Syrup*
When you pour syrup on your pancakes do you wonder how it’s made? Today we’ll go on a field trip to a sugar shack to see for ourselves how maple sap is made into syrup, and discover how the other parts of the tree are part of the process.
*Field trip day
