New Space Equals New Opportunities

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010 by Stephen A. South

When we built our signature building on Lonas Drive, it was such an increase in space I thought it would give us plenty of room to grow. Only four years later, we have filled that building and have been holding additional classes at a second location on Hayfield Road in West Knoxville.

A Day of Caring and Remembrance

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009 by Stephen A. South

Sept. 11 has become a day to reflect on the sacrifices people make to help one another. It is that caring spirit that brings us together.

In addition, students are selling red, white and blue ribbons so that people can show their caring support. All the proceeds will go to the CAMP program.
