Book a Field Trip
For summer visits, email groupsales@calacademy.org, instead. The school field trip application for the 2024-2025 academic year will likely be posted in August. Have a wonderful summer break!
School field trip reservations are available for formal California school groups of students in grades pre-K through 12, including preschool.
- Field trips occur when your school is in session, with classroom teacher(s) in attendance.
- To receive the school group rate, you must bring more than 10 people on your field trip, entering the building together at one time, adhering to chaperone ratios and other relevant policies.
- San Francisco school groups receive free admission during the academic year.
- For other California school groups, pricing is a discounted flat rate of $14.95 per person, regardless of Title I status.
- Eligibility for these free or discounted rates is at the discretion of the Academy, as subsidized admission is available thanks to generous annual donations to the Academy for All initiative, many of which have restrictions.
- Payment must be received in full at least two weeks prior to your visit date, although you may modify your headcount before submitting payment. We accept mailed checks or payment by credit card over the phone to 877-227-3311.
- More details can be found in our Frequently Asked Questions.
- You'll sign these School Group Guidelines on the morning of your field trip.
