Camp Overview

The Outdoor School Program is a 3 day 2 night program offered to all fifth grade students in Plano ISD.  The school’s principal, fifth grade teachers, parent volunteers, and students all travel by school bus to Collin County Adventure Camp near Westminster, Texas.  While at camp, students engage in hands-on science activities which correlate directly to the 5th grade Science TEKS for the state of Texas.

Students and parent chaperones stay in climate controlled cabins.  There are 2 parents in each cabin of 12 students. Parents supervise and lead the students to the activities.  The classes are taught by the students’ teachers and YMCA staff members.
