Children's Education - Program Overview
The Dallas Arboretum's guided tours, self-instructing materials and educational programs provide hands-on experiences that make learning fun and meet the requirements of the TEKS for science education. In addition, these programs incorporate language arts, math, social studies and fine art components.

Because the Crow Pavilion's new classrooms allow the addition of deeper levels of science education to existing field trips, the Arboretum added two new teachers to its staff to research, write curricula for new field trips and teach new classes. The new programs will incorporate technology and help students investigate and understand more complex natural science concepts.
