Stephen Colbert. Stephen Colbert. Stephen Colbert for the win. Forever. Commencement was yesterday, and it was an amazing day. Hot, but amazing. It wasn’t the hottest Commencement we’ve ever had, I don’t think, but it was pretty warm in the sun. Hard to complain […]
Congratulations on making it through the academic year! Did you know that the summer months are just as important as the school year? After your student catches up on some much needed rest and relaxation, encourage him/her to keep wellbeing at the forefront. Because our […]
