Family Heritage Gratitude Celebration 11.21.2024 iLEAD AV Exploration1

Dear Families,

Our learners are growing into wonderful leaders. Our focus is on building strong connections and tailoring learning to each child. We want everyone to feel supported. Through project-based learning and being free to think and inspired to lead, our kids are becoming great thinkers and leaders. I can’t wait to see what amazing things this spring brings!

If you know someone who may be interested in joining the personalized learning adventure at iLEAD AV Exploration, please encourage them to RSVP for a Parent Preview, where they can observe a workshop, hear from program leaders, and have their questions answered. We also encourage interested families to fill out our enrollment application to either enroll now, be added to our midyear wait list, or apply by March 28 for a chance to save their child’s spot for 2025-26 through our enrollment lottery.

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
