Learning Experiences

Fusion Learning Experiences - Spring 2020

One of the things we do at Fusion is what we call “learning experiences” which are different activities or projects for students to consider participating that develop various life skills. Here are what learning experiences are being offered this next semester! All of these learning experiences take place or meets at Fusion, which is on Tuesdays from 3-5pm at First Covenant Church (near Twin Bluff Middle School).

Use the links below to register for our upcoming learning experiences. Note that some experiences have a max capacity, and may require additional forms (links to forms will be sent to you via confirmation email).
