Chickasaw's classroom is filled with a wide variety of potential lessons, for both teachers and students, about the natural and cultural history of the area.

We invite you and your students to explore the park as an extension of your classroom. Self-guided and ranger-guided education programs are available. Professional development opportunities exist, as teachers can participate in the Teacher-Ranger-Teacher program each summer.

If you have questions, would like more information about education programs, or you would like to schedule a program, contact the Education Coordinator at 580 622-7282.
