TOLEDO — A popular school fair for families returns to Toledo next weekend with a new twist: This year, families can both explore more than 50 school options and catch a glimpse of animals in the winter as the fair will be held at the Toledo Zoo’s Malawi Event Center.

All community members are welcome to attend the free event from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Jan. 27; the celebration will bring a wide range of K-12 learning options into one room for families to explore. While parents sip coffee and speak with school leaders, children can enjoy the room’s 73-foot long Aquarium wall, as well as free face painting, balloon twisting, a photo booth and music during a live broadcast with 93.5 (WRQN). Fresh popcorn, chips, and cookies will be available for snacking.

This year marks the sixth annual Toledo School Choice Fair during National School Choice Week, an annual celebration of K-12 learning. Hosted by School Choice Ohio (SCO), the school fair will give families and students an opportunity to learn more about the options available to Northwest Ohio residents, including medical and health science academies, STEM schools, homeschool resources, religious education, early college schools, and more.
