Death March
This activity is for grades 7-12. During the second year of our school, we participated in a 9.5 mile hike through the Arizona Hot Springs and along the Colorado River. The students lovingly named this adventure “The Death March”. Since then, we have offered the opportunity to go on this hike every year. Some could even say that completing it is a necessity for graduating high school. It provides the students the opportunity to look at a challenge and overcome it. We encourage every student in the appropriate grades to participate! Please let Ms. Cathy know if your student will be participating.
