The questions and his response are given below. I am pleased to report that we have seen a sizable increase in enrollment this year. Eighty-two new students joined us for a total student body of 139. This is up from the 102 students we had at the end of last year. We have a ways to go, but for the first time in several years, we are moving in the right direction.
Prospects look good for another increase next year.
Much prayer, the gifts of friends, and a lot of hard work by the entire campus community helped us attain that goal. For the 1997-98 school year, we have established a very realistic budget that is in line with our student body size and our normal gift income. Of course, there are many improvements I would like to make. These have been prioritized and will be undertaken as the Lord provides funding for them. We are committed to live within our means.
