Museum welcomes home school students at any time


The North Berrien Historical Museum offers free educational programs year-round that are perfect for school and home school groups. Museum tours, walking tours, hands-on crafts, traveling trunks, and slide presentations are available for all age groups, and our third and fourth grade museum tours meet Michigan’s Social Studies Grade Level Content Expectations for History. Contact the Director of Education at (269) 468-3330 or nbhs2@sbcglobal.net to learn more or to schedule an engaging and memorable program for your group.

To help share these opportunities with homeschoolers in southwest Michigan, we have recently outreached to several online groups. We are now listed as an approved field trip by the Homeschool Buyers Co-op, a national organization of nearly 64,000 families. We will also appear soon on the Home EDucators Resource Directory, another national network of information for homeschoolers.

If you or anyone you know is a home school family, keep the North Berrien Historical Museum in mind for a quality educational outing. Our monthly E-News is a great way to stay informed about museum events. Annual temporary exhibits and public programs mean that there’s always something new to discover here!
