Thank you so much to all who came out for the meeting

The Assembly elected to change our calendar to a 12-month calendar, and we spent a lot of time talking about the new facility. We will be having a spring play this year, students and staff are very excited! Our next meeting will be Tuesday, May 4th at 6pm. See you there!

As you probably are aware, we are currently interviewing for our open staff member positions. We talked to many great candidates, and have narrowed our search down to four. They will be attending School Meeting next week (Tuesday, October 14 at 1:00pm) to be interviewed by the SM. Parents are invited to attend - this is a rare occasion for you to have a chance to speak at a School Meeting! Come meet the candidates and ask questions. After interviews, we will deliberate ad choose two candidates to receive provisional contracts for a three-month trial period. While parents do not have a vote in School Meeting issues, we will take your votes into consideration at this meeting. Please let a staff member know if you will be attending!

You can now pay tuition using your PayPal Account or major credit card! Simply log onto the site and look on the “Store” page for the tuition payment button. Have your invoice handy to enter the amount due., and with a few clicks your tuition will be paid!

Yesterday was the first day of our FIFTH year! As usual, it was a dynamic day. Watching all of our new students acclimate to the school climate and make new friends is always a pleasure. Seeing how much or returning students have grown, and their enthusiasm and being back in the community, is inspiring. We currently have 26 students, an new record for our little school! Thank you to all parents, staff & volunteers who worked so hard to get things ready for the year.

During the month of July some of our staff were able to attend the SVS workshop in Boston MA. The workshop was like an intensive and valuable staff training session. We took lots of pictures and brought back much information. Looking forward to sharing this great information!

The end of year camping trip was a great success!

We were chauffeured to Antelope island by our amazing driver and staff Kyle. Students, staff, and parents sat by the fire and listened to stories, sang, and made music. The kids were so excited that they stayed up for many hours playing with glow sticks. Much thanks to Kyle, Gwen, and all the people who made our experience wonderful!

Our summer BBQ will be August 23rd, 2008 at 6:00pm. We can’t wait to see you! For details please call 801-274-9555.

Have a nice summer!

Thank you parents, staff, volunteers, and students for contributing to such an awesome year!

See you all later~
