Hi All,

It has been a difficult quarter to say the least. With the recent violence towards the Black Community, we wanted to share with you a statement from one of our Board members, August Lee Stevens. We stand in solidarity with Black Lives Matter in the fight for justice. We will continue to serve and educate our students in order to uplift our community. Thank you for being a part of it. Stay safe and please reach out if you're in need of support, resources, or additional information.

With love,

Cultural Arts & Diversity
Board of Directors
