After-School All-Stars (ASAS) Las Vegas focuses on exposing students to off campus activities that better connects them to the great outdoors, mentors, and overall career opportunities. Since 2007, ASAS Las Vegas has provided Lifetime Adventures classes to connect underserved students to environments outside their neighborhoods and to promote youth outdoor learning and wilderness travel. The program uses outdoor activities as a tool to develop positive social skills that transfer directly to each student’s day-to-day life. Youth involved in Lifetime Adventures are educated about responsibility, teamwork, trust, personal growth, community service learning and stewardship for the environment. Students plan and participate in field trips to nearby places such as Mt. Charleston and Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. We choose to highlight outdoor learning because we know the impact it has on our students’ grades, stress levels, motivation, and overall behavior. We want our students to experience the outdoor world for themselves and not just read about it in textbooks.
