Honoring our past. Inspired by the future. We build tomorrowʼs leaders today!

We invite you to become part of a journey of self-discovery and growth, where young people overcome self-doubt and begin to believe in themselves and their potential. We believe in the power of challenge as a gateway to achieving personal growth. In our safe and supportive environment, young people face their fears and uncertainties, learn to embrace success and discover their true potential.

We offer a multitude of fun, educational and rewarding activities not found in a traditional classroom. Our 22-acre campus in the heart of San Antonio is packed with exciting adventures designed to challenge, inspire, and empower. Conquer your fears on our rappel tower featuring 25-foot and 50-foot rappel walls and a 36-foot rock wall. Foster teamwork, enhance communication skills and improve problem-solving skills or just have fun on our 20-obstacle confidence course, low ropes course or leadership reaction course.

Camp Henson, the premier JROTC training and competition facility at North East Independent School District, is proud to serve thousands of cadets from across an eight-state region. As the home of the 5th Brigade, U.S. Army Cadet Command JROTC Raider Championships and other regional competitions, we offer a high-energy environment where cadets can showcase their skills, build physical and emotional resilience and foster life-long friends and memories.

Camp Henson’s impact extends well beyond NEISD—It’s a regional resource serving organizations across South Texas. Athletic teams, school clubs, youth groups, governmental organizations and private entities benefit from the opportunities this one-of-a-kind facility offers.

The NEISD Army Junior Officers’ Training Corps proudly offers cadets a nationally accredited curriculum, extracurricular activities and community service experiences that help them grow into responsible citizens. JROTC cadets live by a creed that emphasizes respect, responsibility, honor and duties of citizenship. Recording an astonishing 13K plus public service hours annually, our cadets are taught to be servant leaders for our community.

Our programs are widely recognized as some of the very best in the country - having earned National titles in virtually all extracurricular team events.

Our programs build a strong foundation for future success. In the last five years alone, NEISD cadets have earned over $13 million in military scholarships, $22 million in academic scholarships and have had over 175 cadets enlisted into the military.

In 1986, the North East Educational Foundation (NEEF) was established as a non-profit organization to raise funds to provide grants that would enhance the NEISD curriculum beyond the state's requirements.

In 2023, NEEF raised $150,000 to help construct the rappel tower at Camp Henson in San Antonio. With the addition of this tower to the existing obstacle courses, Camp Henson has become a popular destination for JROTCs in the region, having already hosted National JROTC competitions. Additionally, NEEF awarded $3,895 to Ronald Reagan High School's JROTC Drone Program, which is an extension of their robotics and coding curriculum, all of which are in-demand skills in today’s everchanging workforce.
