Dianne Fisk Director's Note

The holidays are over, students are back on campus and you have a clean house again! Here's to a great beginning of the spring semester.

This semester is always packed full of fun and fulfilling activities and events. Students are planning their alternative breaks, traveling to Nicaragua for the academic service semester, World Quest Trivia competition, theater productions and, of course, men's and women's basketball.

As always, our Office Parent Relations is available to support you as parents.


Warmest regards,


Dianne Fisk
