School Tours: The museum offers a one-of-a-kind teaching resource and educational experience for students and teachers. Programs are specially designed to meet and exceed Colorado State Education Standards. Guided tours of the museum incorporate hands-on activities for students, as well as worksheets and associated materials for classroom use.

Programming is designed to be appropriate for student age groups. Examples include: Miner’s Lunch Pail (food chemistry), Chocolate Chip Cookie Mining (mining economics and reclamation), How is Steel Made? (from mining to a finished product), Health of a Steelworker (bone and joint tasks), I Spy CF&I (photographic analysis), Life in a Coal Camp (historic games and entertainment), and much more. Scholarships for gas costs associated with bus transportation are available to schools, through the generosity of local business owners.
