Forney ISD Hosts 8th Annual Summer STEAM Camps

Another summer brings another year of STEAM camps for more than 800 students in Forney ISD. STEAM camps (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math) are held over five weeks during the summer at Jackson Middle School and Rhodes Intermediate. 

Camps are open to both FISD students and those from outside the district and are held Monday through Thursday, in the morning or afternoon. Students participate in a variety of classes including baking, coding, archery, engineering, filmmaking, and more. Teachers from across the district lead camps for students of all grade levels on the topics they are most passionate about.

This is the 8th year that the district has held STEAM camps. The program began as a way to provide academic enrichment to students throughout the summer. In its first year, 196 students registered for 16 camp sessions. This year, the program received 2,236 registrations for 132 camps.
