How can a parent help out?

Two words: CABIN PARENT!  We need Cabin Parents!  Our Camp Tecumseh program can not survive without the help of our parents volunteering to be cabin parents.  Contrary to what you might think, being a cabin parent is more like a vacation then anything else!  Please ask any of our former cabin parents and they will agree that it was a great experience and well worth their time and effort.  Below is a link to our Google drive where you will find downloadable copies of general information about being a Cabin Parent as well as the Cabin Parent form to fill out and submit to Jeff Libey.   All other questions regarding cabin parents should be directed towards Director Jeff Libey jlibey@hse.k12.in.us

What is 7th grade Camp Tecumseh?

Camp Tecumseh is a HSE tradition that spans over fourty years!! During the first full week of October the 7th grade class relocates the classroom and fulfills the mandatory curriculum in an outdoor setting at a camp outside West Lafayette, IN.  Campers spend three days and two nights covering curriculum in a hands on setting.

Statistically 95% of all 7th graders go on this field trip. However, students who do not attend camp will still need to attend school.  They will have an assignment packet that will attempt to cover similar material to the lessons taught at camp.  If for some reason you do NOT want your child to attend camp, please contact director Eric Brown (ebrown@hse.k12.in.us) Below is a link to our Google drive that contains general information about camp (accommodations, meals, etc.) as well as a PowerPoint Presentation that will be presented at the "Meet-the-Teacher night in August.

What do I need to do to get my 7th grader ready?

As Camp T. week approaches many questions may come up. All medical/medication related questions should be addressed to the HIJH School Nurse.  All dietary concerns should be addressed directly to the Camp Tecumseh cafeteria staff (765-564-2898) and our school nurse. 

 Below is a link to our Google Drive that will be updated around the week before camp.  The updates will include things like last minute reminders, packing lists, group assignments, drop off procedures, pick up procedures, etc.
