Big Experiences Start With Small Steps. Walk with us over the next week as we get ready for APA Elementary’s 3rd Annual Walk-a-Thon on Thursday, September 3! Every step and every donation helps create meaningful experiences throughout our year, from field trips and transportation, family events, and the Cadet Cash Store. Follow along as we share some of the places our cadets have gone and will go this year, the memories they have made and will make, and the opportunities your support will help make possible. Come on, walk with us this week. We'd love to show you what we're all about.
