As Girl Scouts, girls discover the fun, friendship, and power of girls together. Girls grow courageous and strong through a wide variety of enriching experiences, such as field trips, skill-building sports clinics, community service projects, cultural exchanges, and environmental stewardships.
This is an opportunity for our newest Roadrunners to experience school without the other students on campus. They get to know the teachers, routines and procedures, cafeteria expectations, and how-to play on the playground. This experience prepares them as they enter their first year of elementary school.
Desert View High School students have the opportunity to work with our elementary students at different grade levels in the foundations of reading.
