The Chihuahuan Desert Nature Park is dedicated to increasing scientific literacy by fostering an understanding of the Chihuahuan Desert. To achieve this goal, the Nature Park serves more than 12,000 students and 600 teachers per year with hands-on, inquiry-based educational programs. Chihuahuan Desert Nature Park staff members are trained as both scientists and educators, allowing them to provide quality programs focused on science inquiry in an age-appropriate manner. For the 2007/08 school year, school programs have been refined and improved. There are now many different options for each grade level.
