The Asombro Institute for Science Education is home to the Chihuahuan Desert Nature Park. We offer K-12 classroom programs. These hands-on, inquiry-based science lessons are an hour in length and are correlated to Next Generation Science Standards, Common Core Math & Language Arts Standards. Each program is grade specific. Our field trips (for K-12 students) are day-long and cover a variety of topics such as desert animal and plant adaptations, soil science, geology, fossils, hierarchy and classification, and more.
Our 935-acre Chihuahuan Desert Nature Park is open to the public Tue - Sun 7 am - 5 pm and is free. (Donations are accepted).
The Asombro Institute for Science Education is dedicated to increasing natural science literacy for K-12 students through engaging place-based education programs.
