About This Activity
Mote’s Homeschool Advanced is a semester-long program that meets monthly to dive deeper into the cutting-edge science happening at Mote’s coral restoration lab. Each semester includes an on-going project and the chance to step into the lab alongside Mote scientists. Students will get the opportunity to experience a different component of Coral Restoration each month, from raising coral babies to the aquaculture of algal grazers. This is a drop-off program. The Advanced Program includes all five themed sessions in one easy registration, giving learners a full season of immersive, connected marine science activities. Because families commit to the full series, the program is offered at a reduced overall rate, making it both enriching and cost-effective. Students build on skills week after week and gain confidence as budding marine scientists. This is an independent student experience, so parents do not attend the sessions. 2026 Class Schedule: January 7th - Life Beneath the Waves: Discovering Ocean Diversity February 4th - Crab Critters: Meet the Reef's Cleanup Crew March 4th - Coral Love Stories: How Scientists Help Corals Reproduce April 15th - Changing Seas: How Water Quality Shapes Ocean Life May 13th - Reef Builders: Restoring Corals, One Fragment at a Time PLEASE NOTE: This class takes place at our laboratory location at Summerland Key, FL in the LOWER FLORIDA KEYS.
