3 Rivers Charter School reports facility improvements, $1,000 international fundraiser and enrollment pressures
Summary
Director Kim Morgan told the board 3 Rivers completed campus remodels, is running a free meal program through Harvest Market, raised $1,000 for a partner school in Uganda, and is targeting growth from current enrollment of 76 toward 90 next year to meet budget needs.
Kim Morgan, director of 3 Rivers Charter School, gave a spring update highlighting recent facility work—fresh paint, new basketball hoops, garden beds—and a kitchen upgrade paid through kitchen infrastructure and training funds. "We serve free breakfast and lunch to all students who want it every day," Morgan said, noting meals are currently provided by Harvest Market.
Morgan described student programs and outcomes: the school held field trips (Exploratorium, Luther Burbank Center, visits to Sonoma State), ran a 'change challenge' that raised $1,000 to support New Hope Grammar School in Uganda, and operated an after-school TIDES program that serves roughly 30 students daily. Enrollment stood at 76 at the time of the report (peak this year was 81), and Morgan said the school is pursuing outreach and a waitlist to move toward a target closer to 90 students for next year’s budget.
The director also noted a positive 2nd interim budget certification, no outstanding legal issues, full liability insurance coverage, and plans to renew the charter the following June. The board asked about outreach to English learner families; Morgan said the school adopted ParentSquare and is translating flyers into Spanish as part of targeted recruitment.
