Greetings!
EM Students rocked the Profectum Conference!
Dr. T. Berry Brazelton was overcome with surprise and amazement as our students presented him with their animated tribute "95 Years in 95 Seconds." Second-year student, Eli Katz impressed all 300 attendees with his "exceptional" speech and off the cuff humor. Exceptional Minds students were definitely the highlight of this conference!
We are gearing up for our expanded summer workshops. Be sure to sign up by May 15th. Spaces are going fast!
Construction is well underway on our new classrooms/studio...just down the hall! We look forward to seeing all of you at our End of the Year Celebration in June. Invitations will be sent out in the next few weeks.
Sincerely,
Yudi Bennett & Ernie Merlan
