Check Out our Virtual Programs, Activities and Resources

Learn More
Because of Covid-19, many children no longer have access to formal educational opportunities or are participating in online classes at home.  In order to keep children engaged and learning or to supplement their current class work, Lacawac has developed a virtual learning center providing field trips, programs, activities, and resources.  It is our hope that children will grow and learn because of our Virtual Learning Center.
