Ms. Joelle Basnight
I wish you a restful and enjoyable Eid/Spring Break. As you know, classes will be suspended next week and no services will be available on campus. The main building, including the Learning Commons, will be closed throughout the break. Mr. Nielsen and Mr. Emad have posted below the hours for campus access and recreation.
Please also remember that we return to a regular school schedule after the break. Classes will resume at 8:00 am on April 6th. Buses will also return to their regularly scheduled pick up time.
In the March Board meeting, Trustees voted unanimously to pass a budget for the 25/26 school year. This included a 2% tuition increase. Please check your email for details.
