What to Know

6th grade students may attend Outdoor Science Camp from February 25–27, 2026. This three-day, two-night program provides hands-on learning experiences in a natural environment and includes a variety of science-based activities designed to build curiosity, teamwork, and environmental awareness.

​

The total cost is about $535 per student. We kindly ask each family to contribute toward this experience. Donations may be submitted in two installments:

  • Donation 1: $250 due Friday, October 24, 2025
     

  • Donation 2: $285 due Friday, January 16, 2026
    ​

Please make checks payable to OCSCS, noting “Camp” and your child’s name in the memo line.

​

Our goal is for every student to attend, regardless of financial circumstances. If your family is in need of assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly. We are also working closely with our OCSCS PTA to coordinate additional fundraising efforts that may help lower costs for all students.

​

Thank you for your continued support in making this memorable educational experience possible for our students.
