June 2025 Update: It's amazing how quick it's happening. Our staff is very excited about the potential for this new building to be bigger and better than what we currently have. We have windows, we have drywall, we have a canopy. With new technology and equipment, we are thankful for the new facility to better serve the kids' needs.

Every day brings us closer to enjoying our new home, allowing students opportunities that they haven't had, expanding technology, and access to things that they really need to be successful.
