ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION CLASSES

EXPLORE environmental issues



The goal of Environmental Education (EE) at The Pines Catholic Camp is to draw students closer to the environment and to help build an understanding of their role as stewards of God's earth. It is tremendously exciting for students to experience class lessons through hands-on activities in a unique outdoor setting. The curriculum for EE is guided by and meets the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) for the fifth grade.

Trained Pines staff members will guide students through activities and the following class sessions:

  • Archeology
  • Forestry
  • Meteorology
  • Entomology (study of insects)
  • Limnology (fresh water study)
  • Orienteering
