Trailblazer Discovery Days 

Homeschool Enrichment with Nature's Schoolhouse Microschool

Fridays in the Park Interest Form

Welcome to Trailblazer Discovery Days with Nature's Schoolhouse (formerly known as Fridays in the Park)! This one-of-a-kind program, spanning 27 Mondays from September through May, offers children a hands-on, nature-based educational experience like no other.

At the core of Trailblazer Discovery Days is our Nature Explorers Science Lab, where students embark on six immersive 4 week sessions throughout the year, each dedicated to a different branch of science, such as climatology, geology, biology, etc. Through outdoor exploration and hands-on activities, children deepen their understanding of the natural world while making real-world connections to scientific concepts.

Complementing the Nature Explorers Science Lab are our enrichment classes, where students can choose from a variety of exciting activities. From cooking and gardening to sports, yoga, and art, these experiences spark creativity, develop practical skills, and encourage collaboration—all while fostering a love for learning and the outdoors.

Set on over 10 acres of beautiful land in Cedar Park, Trailblazer Discovery Days is the perfect blend of education, exploration, and fun. Whether your child is a current student or new to our community, spending Mondays with us is a wonderful way to start the school week!
