Approval!

Monday, October 1, 2007, we heard from the Indiana Department of Education. We were told that we have received provisional approval for The Edge. This means that we can start the program! We are so excited about starting. October 15, 2007 will be the official beginning of The Edge. We will be housed in the board room until our building is complete.

We have also received a sign permit. While I never thought I would be excited about a permit or a sign, this is one step closer to making the school a reality. We continue to wait on other permits to be approved. Patience is a virtue!

Yesterday we visited Clark Pleasant Academy. We are modeling our program after this one. It was great to see their school in action. We really enjoyed talking to the students. They are so honest and forthright. They have great respect for the staff. It was an enjoyable visit. While we have been busy getting ready, this visit energized and renewed our commitment to the students of Richland Bean Blossom Community Schools.
