Move in 2011

Whew! Our group of 23 incoming first-year students moved in today. The move-in process is always an exciting process - some students ready to push their folks out the door before they unpack, others weepy before they even set down the first box. Wherever they are today, guaranteed in a few days they will hit their stride and in a few weeks be wondering what all the fuss was about.

This year our incoming group is larger because of the addition of the Generation NeXt program that we have developed in collaboration with the SWSELPA and LACOE and funding under the Transition Program for Students with Intellectual Disabilities (TPSID) demonstration grant from the US Department of Education.

All in all - a tiring, emotional day, but the start of another magical year.
