Field Trip Experiences at Reading Science Center
The Field Trip Experience
A class field trip experience lasts approximately 2 hours on-site at the Reading Science Center. After a short introduction, groups of about 50 students are split in half.
Pricing & Scheduling
Our standard pricing is $16 per student. However, depending on grant designations, we may be able to provide a subsidy to your school. Please discuss during the process of scheduling your trip.
Trips may be scheduled mornings and afternoons, Monday through Friday based on availability. Please contact us at info@rdgsci.org or sarah.troy@rdgsci.org for booking or more information.
Financial Assistance
Additional grant opportunities may be available for teachers to provide their class with a field trip to the Reading Science Center. Please see grant resources at fieldtripdirectory.com.
Transportation
If your school does not have its own bus transportation, Berks County Intermediate Unit may be able to help.
