We once had a bunch of home-schoolers arrive, the adults claiming that they
were "chaperones." Since our group policy did not cover home schooling until
that incident my impromptu decision was three adults (for 15 kids) and the
rest could pay adult fare, or wait for their kids in their cars.

Our policy for school tours is that all of the students K-12 are free, and
they receive one free adult admission for every 10 students.  We do that to
assure that all schools can have adequate adult supervision.  We do charge
for any additional adults who accompany the group, which can help our
bottom line.  We had a tour last week from the NE corner of the state where
they had 12 extra adults!
