Explorers Class of 2020
The Explorers are a group of 6th grade parents that support the school by raising funds that directly benefit the students in the upcoming graduating class. The funds raised by the Explorers will pay for the 6th Grade End of the Year activities such as Celebration and Recognition Nights and also help offset the cost of any 6th Grade Trip(s).
