iLEAD ANTELOPE VALLEY NEWS & EVENTS
Dear Families,
Beyond textbooks and tests, what truly prepares a child for a fulfilling life? At iLEAD AV Exploration, we believe it’s about nurturing Lifelong Learners, Empathetic Citizens, Authentic Individuals, and Design Thinkers. This week, we’re thrilled to introduce you to our Learner Outcomes and how they shape every step of a learner’s journey at iLEAD AV Exploration.
Whether you’re a new or returning family, please be sure to complete your registration documents to ensure your child can join us when school begins on Tuesday, August 12. If you have any questions, please email info.exploration@ileadav.org.
If you have any questions for our team, please don’t hesitate to reach out to 661-429-3757 or info.exploration@ileadav.org. And be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram to stay connected!
With gratitude,
Terri Budke
iLEAD AV Exploration Director
