Sanibel Sea School offering homeschool program
The Sanibel Sea School offers an immersive, marine science program for homeschoolers.
The Homeschool at Sea program is an experiential, hands-on approach to learning about Southwest Florida’s coastal ecosystems. Homeschool sessions include a mix of classroom activities, field excursions, experiments and art projects. Depending on the topic, students will adventure to the Gulf beaches, mangrove forests or Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation’s preserves on Sanibel.
“We love working with the homeschool community here in Southwest Florida — it gives our educators the freedom to be creative, tailor lessons to curious minds and explore the many ways children learn,” Director Shannon Rivard said. “Homeschool at Sea is more than a program; it’s a chance to connect with families who value unique, hands-on experiences and a diversity of education styles.”
The courses are offered seasonally from September through November on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays for ages 6-17. The courses are divided by age group; there is flexibility on the age restrictions.
