The South Carolina Aquarium proudly offers FREE programming to classes through a donation funded program called the Structured School Program. Students visiting the Aquarium as part of the Structured School Program participate in classroom activities that reinforce South Carolina state science standards.

The program is offered daily mid-October through January. Teachers of all subjects are invited to apply. At the close of the application process, forms are chosen at random thorough a lottery system. Our programs are free, but we do require all participating K-12th grade teachers to attend a teacher training workshop prior to bringing their class to the Aquarium.
