Jacqueline R. Brayboy

Brayboy Scholars is named in memory of the late Jacqueline Brayboy. Jackie was a passionate friend to Great Explorations from the moment of its conception. She valued healthy family relationships, life learning opportunities, and accessible education all as keys to unlock doors to a multitude of opportunities. She was a supportive wife, nurturing mother, and an exceptional teacher. The Great Explorations family misses her dearly and counts it a privilege to continue her legacy of a life well-lived by equipping Explorers to do the same.
