Check out the incredible progress we have made this summer with our first phase of AMP UP THE ANNEX!!!
Thank you again to everyone who has helped us raise funds to improve the annex for our students and teachers! Refreshed bathrooms, paint, murals, and more have made all the difference in making this an inspiring learning environment.
We look forward to continuing the transformation!
