Help Build Evergreen's Future
Back in 2003, Evergreen’s Board of Directors voted to purchase this campus. They moved us from rental property in an office park on Louisiana Ave to our current campus which more than doubled our monthly payment. It was a hard decision and very scary. The school was experiencing a great deal of financial adversity – we were only four years old and had very little money in the contingency fund, the school had to make cuts to staff benefits in order to meet budget, at the time, few banks or lenders wanted to give money to charter schools, and since we were relatively new we had no track record of success and were known as the hippy school. But despite all this, those visionary leaders saw what Evergreen could become if given the opportunity… and look where we are now. Not only has this been a great home for us but the property has doubled in value.
