2026-2027 camp information and updates will be available after July 24, 2026. Please check back then.
5th Grade Outdoor School at Camp JOLT
The Outdoor School classes are an extension of the district's curriculum. The students participate in science, outdoor recreation, and team-building activities while at camp. The students have the opportunity to interact with the natural environment and see how they impact it daily.

Safety
Safety will always be our top priority.
We are prepared for any weather conditions while at camp. As long as students can be happy and safe outside, the program will include outdoor activities. All JOLT staff members are trained to monitor and recognize severe weather. Cabins and buildings will serve as severe weather shelters if needed.
Teachers, campus administration, and district personnel, including a nurse, are also on-site during each camp session.
Contact with Student During Camp
We have found that talking with a child during a camp session often causes homesickness. If there is an emergency at home, and you need to contact your child while he/she is attending camp, you may contact Plano ISD Camp Administrator.
- For the protection and security of all students, parent visitation during the camp session is strictly prohibited.
- All adults present at camp will have received the required security clearance from the Texas Department of Public Safety before the Outdoor School session.
