| Description Program Srvc Accom | We had an adventurous year with many new students from the neighboring state and many incredible experiences increasing services from 36 funded students to 49. We offered 88 classes up from 62 and collaborated with area businesses to offer 33 educational events, up from 18 the previous year. We learned new skills in offering virtual classes and testing from our homes to accommodate the stay home orders, provided lots of homeschooling advice, help, and resources to many more families who were forced into the challenging educational situations brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. We were terming out of a 5 year lease in Aug. 2020, moved out 4 months early in April while closed for stay home COVID-19 orders, saved money on rent and utilities, applied for the PPP loan to help pay for staff salaries hoping to reopen for the 2020-2021 school year not knowing what our future held. We were informed in May that we would be unable to use a church space for our 2020-2021 school year due to COVID-19 concerns and our working with children and found ourselves homeless operating out of 4 donated storage locations. The roller coaster ride did not disappoint, we are proud of our accomplishments under the extreme conditions, and accepted the challenge that COVID-19 created! | DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt |
