Casper Mountain Science Program

Program Description:

The Casper Mountain Science Program (CMSP) offers learning opportunities for K-12 Natrona County School District students. Our goal is to take students outside to learn science in the natural environment on Casper Mountain. CMSP is a place-based, multidisciplinary program where knowledge is interwoven with Wyoming's ecology. We use the outdoors to introduce students to field studies and to develop an appreciation of Casper’s backyard, and the natural world as a whole. We operate out of a lodge on Casper Mountain surrounded by acres of forest, meadows, and riparian habitat, all of which serve as learning areas for students. The Casper Mountain Science Program offers both day and residential (overnight) programs. Programs are scheduled from September through December for the fall semester and then we start again in February and run through May for the spring semester.
