We apologize for our radio silence, we've been busy!
In October, some of our students and staff went to The Blast Corn Maze! In addition to finishing the corn maze, they also rode the tractor around the property and shot corn out out of a cannon! Later in the month, three of our students participated in Concordia Ann Arbor Music 's Fall Fresco, an annual concert.
In November, Jack, one our second year students, participated in Jet 4 A Vet 5K Run, a race through Concordia University - Ann Arbor's Veteran Services department. The following weekend, some of our students and staff went to BIG Best In Games for some friendly competition.
Want to learn more about our program? Send us a message! We're reviewing applications for next school year now, spots are limited!
