All our homeschool lists:
How this list works. We copy details from each venue's, store's or library's own page and show the date we last checked. Cards marked "Also on our Albuquerque page" are the same listings as on our main Albuquerque page, shown here so you don't have to hunt for them. For discounts we only list stores whose own policy names homeschool teachers, and we note the proof they ask for. Stores can change their rules at the register, so check before you buy. We are not affiliated with any venue or store here.
🎟️ Homeschool days, discounts & free passes (5)
Museums, parks and nature sites with homeschool days or homeschool rates, free passes you can borrow with a library card, and stores whose own policy says their teacher discount includes homeschool teachers.
