LSUHS Calendar Corral: March 2019

For Homeschoolers

Because we are a small school focused on experiential learning, we do a ton of cool stuff on campus and off. We also love to share with the community. Homeschool friendly opportunities are denoted with an asterisk *. Some of these are free, and some have a costs associated with them – generally to the destination. When we charge, we try to keep the costs reasonable. Some classes/camps have a lot of materials associated with them and cost more.

What’s going on at LSUHS this month?

This month we are continuing our Rocketry STEM class and our new signature youth conservation project! We will be attending VSU farm workshops and conferences AND homeschool families can visit with us at the VA Homeschooling Conference in Williamsburg!
