Our private campus now includes student housing, an additional continuing education classroom, a new student library, new offices for our staff and a new retail store for our students. The main classroom includes a convenient kitchenette and lots of places to picnic outdoors. A short hike, picnic or quick game of tennis are often favorite lunchtime activities.
