Saturday Explorations

Saturday Explorations is an enrichment program for students in grades 5 through 8. The program is taught by Willamette University students, and an experienced teacher helps with the planning of all activities and is present each Saturday. There is a $50 fee that helps fund the university studies of the teachers involved and provides the resources and supplies for each class.

Register for our next session, which runs every Saturday from October 3-31, 2009.
