“85th Explorer Academy, you are dismissed!”
When my friend, Yesenia, told me about Explorers I was very excited and enthusiastic about doing something different. I have always enjoyed doing different things and learning new things that challenge me. After my friend told me about Explorers, I had to ask my parents permission.
