We are excited to enter the last part of Phase I construction. In Summer of 2025 we are scheduled to open our 100 Building Main Office in Fall 2025 and proceed to start on the work of our upper quad, 300 Building HVAC units, 500 Building, 600 Building, and our Counseling Center.  This means we will be closed for summer school this summer and only open for our student athletes through specific gates for practices.  Our temporary office is still scheduled to stay open through June 20, 2025 for our families.  We will be officially closed the remainder of the summer until August 4, 2025 for Orientation Week.
