The article I read about this school nearly two years ago led me to provide a small monthly donation. But, in October of this year, I chose to visit the school unannounced, to check up on my investment. I found the staff to be most cordial and accommodating. The school's physical plant, while humble, was spotlessly maintained and inviting. Because the principal was tending to a parent's concern, I spoke instead with two of the high school students. They displayed gracious manners, were well groomed, provided engaging conversation. They shared with me their perception that the school was like family, their deep appreciation of the faculty and their laudable life goals. As a result of this encounter, not only will I continue my monthly donation to the school but increase the amount, my small way of supporting the school and the students' dreams.
