We provide year-round residential science programs (1-5 days) to Arizona K-12 students at our 25-acre Mt. Lemmon campus. Our philosophy is to provide place-based, inquiry-based, and outdoor science education. Programs include:
- Daytime field instruction in small groups on Mt. Lemmon with UA graduate student scientists serving as instructors and mentors
- Student developed and led research projects
- Nighttime astronomy experiences with University telescopes
- Post-trip relationships with UA scientists built via exploration of long-term datasets and web resources for classrooms
- Dormitory lodging and all meals on-site
