Camp Fire Central Texas Afterschool

Camp Fire Afterschool offers small group experiential learning which incorporates outdoor-based experiences, hands-on activities and project-based learning. Youth participating in Camp Fire Afterschool engage in activities complementing TEKS curriculum through STEAM-based (Science, Tech, Engineering, Art, Math) learning that promotes the development of critical thinking, problem-solving and creativity.

Camp Fire Afterschool is a nurturing, constructive, and fun environment for young people to discover their spark - their unique skills and passions - and adopt a growth mindset. Camp Fire believes in the power of nature to awaken a child's senses, curiosity and spark an ongoing desire to learn.

Throughout the semester, youth learn outdoor skills and environmental stewardship principles. Our programs encourage personal growth by incorporating THRIVE methodology, an evidence-based approach to youth development through a Social Emotional Learning framework. ​
