Fostering and facilitating diverse educational experiences that serve the Toledo Zoo’s mission.
The Toledo Zoo Education Department programs feature fun, hands-on learning for visitors of all ages and interests. Educators appreciate our teacher workshops and student-centered programs that meet academic standards. Kids enjoy our fun hands-on learning programs (and so do adults!). We also visit organizations in our community, including hospitals and senior centers. We are proud to represent The Toledo Zoo as we help others learn more about fascinating animals, nature, and conservation.
