Week 8: Breaking Ground

If You Are Happy and You Know it...
Build a Building!

This week is all about joy. We received our permit, attended a pre-construction meeting with our whole team and the county, and...
and...
and...
WE BROKE GROUND!!! We are so very, very excited!

If you drive by this weekend you will likely see our trailer, lots of utility wire and pipe, and maybe even some heavy equipment. We have waited so long for this moment that there are just no words to describe our feeling.

Add to that the beautiful weather, sprouts in our gardens, butterfly caterpillars in our tanks, and lots and lots of singing throughout the school and really, life just doesn't get a whole lot better than this.

Glimpse: Enrollment

We are sure that most of you know that we are in the heat of fall enrollment. We have had new families coming into see us daily from all over the country and all over the world. Some of our visitors have been from India, and France, and Iceland and Germany. We have met families from at least a dozen states. It has been so much fun to meet all of these folks from so many different perspectives. As we move into the summer months we do so knowing that our community is going to be richly diverse. That is also a blessing for which we have no words to express our gratitude.

If you have been waiting to complete your application our advice to you is CALL NOW!!! We are quickly filling our classrooms and we would hate to miss out on the chance to get to know your family. Mary mailed out twenty-three more enrollment packets yesterday. It won't be long now until we are full.
