For Teachers

Let the adventure begin!

For over 25 years, Saguaro National Park has been engaging students in a variety of natural and cultural curriculum-based educational opportunities. Either in our guided field trips or park ranger visits to classrooms, students of the southwest are able to capture the beauty and diversity of the Sonoran Desert, exploring the National Park in their own backyard.
