Come to Ozark Natural Science Center to immerse yourself in the natural sciences during an overnight residential education experience.  See what it is like for 4th, 5th and 6th grade students to learn about science while they have classes along the trails, creek and in our classroom.  You will experience the night hike, creek trails, bluff shelter and wishing rock while you engage in open ended learning and explore nature while engaging in NGSS-based lessons.  

Stay in our lodges and enjoy the beauty of the forest from morning to night as well as the healthy and delicious dining provided by our chef.  

This is an experience that students never forget. You will learn why teachers keep bringing students back, year after year.  We would love to show you what we do and why we love sharing natural science with your students!

Includes 6 hours of professional development.
