WHAT IS PATHFINDERS?
The Pathfinders’ assembly is the culmination of Maple Heights Schools Black History Month activities and recognizes people who have been trailblazers to success in five different areas: education, citizenship/government, the arts & science, humanitarianism and business. Individuals are recognized for finding or creating a path of success that Maple Heights' students can follow – thus the name Pathfinders.
JUST TO LET YOU KNOW, THE 9TH ANNUAL MAPLE HEIGHTS PATHFINDERS' ASSEMBLY WAS EXCELLENT.
