Message from the Directors

Hello SCVi Families,

We are very proud of our learners as they work on leaving things better than they found it. Everyone is doing their part making sure that the school grounds look clean. We love that our learners are taking pride in their school. As you walk around the lower campus, you will see new carpeting and paint in many of our classrooms, a community piano upstairs, project boards displayed in the back lobby and upstairs, and our new Flag Courtyard. We have also purchased eight large garden boxes for our back yard and the Cafe courtyard. Soon, our learners will learn to grow herbs, plants, and flowers. The learners will research to determine what we should plant and will be responsible for maintaining the plants and boxes. We will continue to add beautiful touches throughout the year.

Our upper school facilitators are having a great time getting to know our new learners, including our amazing new freshmen and of course, our equally fantastic returning students. Mrs. Nilsen and I have enjoyed getting to know the 11th graders in our community Service Learning class (more information and rubric to follow). We are enjoying the new Shakespeare Theater buildout. As a result, we have fresh new spaces for our learners and facilitators to perform their magic. I look forward to keeping you updated as we evolve and grow.

All the best,
Lisa Latimer and Kimberly Matthes
