Experience Guadalupe River State Park as an outdoor classroom in this program for school-age kids!

Guadalupe River State Park’s homeschool program is a set of outdoor classes for homeschool kiddos grades K-5. Classes are usually held on the second full week of the month (September through May; excluding January), and you can choose between Wednesday at 10am, Thursday at 10am or Friday at 10am. We will cover a different topic every month, so don’t miss out!

November’s topic is ancient spear throwing! Before the bow and arrow, Native Americans hunted with the atlatl and dart. Students will learn the history of this ancient hunting tool and try it for themselves!
