A unique educational, non-denominational, Pre-Kindergarten through 8th grade school near Traverse City, Michigan
As a parent of a Pathfinder graduate, I can attest to the absolute fact that he would not be the smart, inquisitive and one who loves learning had he not attended Pathfinder. Give your child the benefit of an excellent education and the additional benefit of a well rounded, articulate, and confident young person Close Quote
