Description Program Srvc AccomOur greatest key achievements this year were adjusting to a decrease in our student count from expecting 60 students to serving 34 students. We lost two highly qualified teachers due to decreases in staff wages, went from 3 full time/ 3 part time employees to 1 full time/ 2 part time, yet managed to provide challenging and diverse classes to area homeschooling students and families. We achieved adjusting a budget by 50%, pulling together as a staff, operating a full year program with minimal funding, and proving that our organization is resilient and can be flexible with challenges.DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt
