Outreach Programs
San Diego Humane Society can bring our Humane Education program to your classroom or educational setting. We tailor programs for all age groups and offer lessons on a variety of humane education topics.
What is Humane Education?
Humane education fosters compassion and respect for all living beings and the environment, and empowers students by giving them the tools to make more compassionate and informed choices that combat real-world problems.
By educating our youth in humane education, we are teaching them the value of kindness toward one another, animals and the environment. All of our lessons are designed with these goals in mind.
Scheduling a Visit
We are currently scheduling Virtual Outreach Visits for fall 2020 as follows:
Kindergarten:
One 30 minute visit with an education volunteer, includes a story and a visit from an animal ambassador
Grade 1:
Two 30 minute visits: Pet Safety and How to Meet a Dog
Grades: 2-5:
• Virtual Field Trip: 30-45 minute tour of the San Diego Campus
• Critter Crash: 15-20 minute visit from one of our animal ambassadors
We will begin scheduling for spring 2021 once the decision has been made regarding distance or in-person learning.
To schedule a visit, please submit the Virtual Outreach Program Request Form. When possible, please schedule all of the same grade-level classes together so that we can accommodate and schedule more programs at more schools.
