To find the volume of a square prism, you can use the formula \( V = s^2 h \), where \( s \) is the length of each side of the square base and \( h \) is the height of the prism.

Given:
- \( s = 4 \)
- \( h = 6 \)

Now, substituting the values into the formula:

\[
V = s^2 h = 4^2 \times 6
\]

Calculating \( 4^2 \):

\[
4^2 = 16
\]

Now, multiplying by \( h \):

\[
V = 16 \times 6 = 96
\]

Thus, the volume of the square prism is **96 cubic centimeters**.
