To a Safe New Year!

Welcome to Spring 2021 Term!

We hope everyone starts this year off strong! These are very unconventional, and even scary, times. But despite adversities, we hope communities will band together and unite as one. Now, more than ever, we must work together to help those in need. We wish everyone a very happy, healthy and safe 2021!

Congratulations High School Seniors!

We are very proud of our high school seniors, who are already receiving college acceptance letters. From the University of Pennsylvania, to other elite colleges scattered across the United States and United Kingdom, many early letters have rendered wonderful results. Congratulations seniors!
