Urban Adventure Squad (UAS) is a Washington, D.C.-based 501(c)(3) non-profit education organization. We support schools and communities with neighborhood-based, hands-on learning programs that focus on the outdoors and use the city as a classroom. We partner with schools, other non-profit organizations, and community groups to connect students to their neighborhoods with cross-curricular, standards-aligned activities relating to science, history, math, art, engineering, and writing, and to train teachers in outdoor learning. We also offer full-day programs during out-of-school time, like on professional development days and federal holidays, as well as during school breaks.

RETURNING FAMILIES: Shortcut to UltraCamp
NEW FAMILIES: To get started, create an account in our registration database powered by UltraCamp. Visit our Full Day Programs page for our calendar of programs and info on how to create an account. 

WINTER BREAK FUN! We're offering two half day winter break hikes. Check out the details and register here.

DECEMBER 16 at 8pm: REGISTRATION OPENS FOR DCPS DAYS OFF. See the dates and locations of our January-April programs on our Full Day Programs page. 

COMING IN JANUARY: SPRING BREAK and SUMMER REGISTRATION! We'll keep you posted right here on our website, on social media, and in our newsletter. Stay tuned for summer Squad fun...
