The Cox Science Center and Aquarium's team of science educators reach more than 130,000 students each year through educational programs at the Science Center and outreach to local schools within seven counties.  Programs explore all fields of science and are aligned with Sunshine State Standards and National Science Education Standards. These programs are adapted to reach students in many different learning environments, including public and private schools, out-of-school time, scout troops, and other community organizations. Each year, the Science Center also hosts week-long summer camps for children ages 7-12.  The Science Center also offers online educational resources with its “Anytime, Anywhere Science” program for fourth and fifth-grade teachers.
