⛺ First-Time Campers & Big Adventures! 🌊 Our 5th and 6th graders tackled an unforgettable overnight camping trip to Cape Henlopen State Park! For many, it was their very first time sleeping away from home.

From pitching tents and cooking walking tacos over the fire to touching horseshoe crabs, braving a chilly dip in the Delaware Bay, and climbing the historic Observation Tower, our students showed incredible teamwork and resilience.

Huge thanks to the Robert F. Schumann Foundation and the No Child Left Indoors initiative for making these hands-on adventures possible! 💚

In late September, our field became a campground, our hammocks were a hit, and our families enjoyed some well-earned time together! The RCS Family Campout brought students, parents, and guardians together for games, food, outdoor exploring, and plenty of laughter. From meeting tiny creatures to sharing snacks with friends, there was something to discover around every corner. As evening settled in and tents dotted the field, the fun of being at school after hours made the gathering especially memorable. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make it happen. We loved seeing our Creek community connect, play, and make memories together!
