June, 2010
Over 1,000 people were in attendance! It was very moving to hear the speeches but best of all were the comments and awestruck looks from parents and students as they walked around the campus. Can’t wait to post final photography to our website in September and give everyone a closer look at this amazing campus.

The New Mendocino K–8 School:
A Community Dream Realized
Story by Margi Gomez
Contributing editor, Lisa Norman
Here’s a quote from the article the QKA marketing department thoroughly enjoyed: “I think that the new school has a great stage, kitchen, plants, playground, library and classrooms. I think the whole school is awesome. P.S.…It’s totally twenty-first century,” Sofia Seim asserts.
The new Mendocino K-8 campus will be featured on our website in early 2010.
