The Board of Directors in a motion Tues-

day, May 18, 2010 gave Western Christian
the green light to operate the high school
and college in the current campus for
2010-2011 school year.

The administration reported receiving

$483,797.31 by May 17th of the first
$600,000 operating funds needed. U.S.
donations are still coming in as a result of
the letter that was mailed April 26. These
funds need to be processed through the
Cedar Foundation in Sidney, Montana,
before they can be tallied. We will move
to the next $600,000 as soon as the first
phase is complete.
