To schedule a program: Please call 302-368-5703 or email director@ironhillsciencecenter.org for more information or to inquire about reserving your field trip.

​

Our programs focus on earth science, archaeology, Native American studies, natural history, and paleontology as they relate to Delaware and the region.

​

The Iron Hill Museum programs address State of Delaware Curriculum Framework standards and benchmarks.

​

Field trip cost: $5.00 per student. There is a reduced rate of $4.00 per student when program is scheduled for the afternoon on weekdays. Exceptions to this price is our Earth Science + Collect program. This is $6 per student. 

 

Up to 50 students can be accommodated per field trip visit. Larger groups can reserve both morning and afternoon visits (example, if you have 70 students, 35 can do the tour in the morning, and 35 can do the tour in the afternoon, if transportation is available), or two different tour dates. A minimum of 10 students (or $55 minimum) is requested. Groups are split into approximately 20 students per museum educator. Field trips are 120 minutes in length. (This can be tailored to a shorter time if requested by the teacher.)

​

Note to Homeschooling families: We do have a special homeschool programs for families that wish to visit that fall under our 10 person minimum. The options listed are called “Homeschool Wednesdays”, “Nature at a Glance”, “Learning Together”, and “Geology + Collect”. More Homeschool information here!
