NOLA Family Fun at the Insectarium and Butterfly Garden--GREAT group rate!

**There is no need to print tickets; simply select the number needed so that we can effectively plan for our family fun! We use this site for reservations only. Admission will be collected at the event ($3.50 per person over 2 - cash only)!

Audubon Butterfly Garden and Insectarium, located in the U.S. Custom House on Canal Street, encourages you to use all five senses as you explore North America’s largest museum devoted to insects and their relatives. You’ll discover why insects are the building blocks of all life on our planet in our newest one-of-a-kind attraction. Thousands of live and preserved specimens illustrate the vast diversity of shape, size and color of Earth’s largest group of animals. Be sure to wear your school shirts if you have one (if not, no worries) and show some #LAVCApride!

Who?

Students, siblings, and family members are welcomed to attend! Parents are expected to remain with students at all times.

How much will it cost?

• $3.50 per person over 2 years/bring correct cash for your group and arrive by 10:15 to enter with the group at 10:30 and receive the discounted rate.
• If you do not enter with the group, regular rates apply ($16.95 for adults and $11.95 for students).

What to bring:

Wear comfy walking shoes! You will also need signed releases for our school. They will be kmailed out prior to the event and both pages should be completed and brought to the event to save time when you arrive. Even if you've completed these before, please bring them again. It's the simplest way for us to keep it organized! If strollers are needed, smaller ones are encouraged.

A good place to park is at Canal Place about a block away. They will also validate parking for a small purchase.

All LAVCA outings are optional for our families. By participating in LAVCA outings, students and families are agreeing to abide by LAVCA's guidelines in the Student-Parent Handbook:

Louisiana Virtual Charter Academy will sponsor optional outings for students and families on a regular basis that enhance the K12 curriculum/learning activities. While attendance is not mandatory, it is an opportunity to meet other school participants, have conversations, share practices that work and provide academic enrichment. While credit for student outings is not offered in lieu of the regular curriculum, time can be counted as supplemental activities hours within the Online School.
Parents are responsible for the cost of transportation and any entrance fees associated with optional outings.
LAVCA parents and students are expected to conduct themselves appropriately at all optional student outings. Parents/guardians are responsible for the supervision of their children at all times.
