Yes. The Schiele staff will be there to help monitor your child while they are at the museum and encourage them to complete their school work. Each child will participate in a designated homework period and staff will be available to assist.

Participants are encouraged to read if they complete their homework before the period ends.

Fees are based on the actual number of Kid’s Quest weeks for that month, and prorated for any holidays.  Full-day participation for any teacher work days will be included in your monthly invoice.
