Sierra House is coming to town!

Or, more precisely, to the Club. In mid November, Sierra House School had an electrical fire in one of the reading classrooms that caused significant damage, and as a result, the entire school is vacating to enable extensive remediation work to be completed. The Club is delighted that we have the ability to open our rooms and make ourselves available to the school. Starting on Monday 17th December the whole of Sierra House will be at our site. To fit everyone in the school will be doing a split schedule. K-2nd in the morning and 3rd-5th in the afternoon.

We Need to Prioritize Families

In the 2017/2018 school year, 269 children in our community qualified as homeless under the McKinney-Vento guidelines.  This is not to say that they are sleeping on the streets, but that they are in a motel, living with an extended relative, or sharing one home for multiple families.  This can have a devastating effect upon a child's mental and physical health and academic success.  How [...]
