People of the Pacific

  • Advisor: Ms. Iosefa

Another big part of our club is to encourage our Pacific Island students to take their academics seriously and to develop leadership skills within our Granger environment and in the community.  We do all this so we can help motivate students here in Granger to change the culture of our school for the better.
