More See what Teachers said about our School Year Programs

We were delighted with Edventure More’s School Year Programs that we purchased during the 2010-11 school year. Their museum-designed In Class Program (ICP) sessions were both academically challenging and fun — a great fit for our 4th and 5th grade Alameda Students, as well as for academically advanced 2nd grade students. The instructors were not only highly skilled educators, but also were enthusiastic and easily established a rapport with kids at different grade levels. Needless to say, we are hiring Edmo again to deliver their in-depth, multi-session After School Program (ASP) lessons during the 2011-12 school year.”
