Dear Families,

We had a fantastic time at our first iLEAD AV Exploration meetup of the year at the California Science Center! From exploring the exciting Game On exhibit and discovering the science behind sports, to making new friends and checking out the amazing kelp forests, it was an adventure we’ll never forget!

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,
