From the Leadership Team

We get to this time of the year, and often say, “Where did the year go?” I am sure when we really stop and think we have a long list of answers that can sit alongside this question; thousands of emails responded to, projects managed, relationships built and relationships mended, family events navigated, bills paid, celebrations had, and hard times worked through.

What a wonderful year it has been for Endeavour College, and I continue to feel proud to be a part of the education profession, to experience the great joy of working alongside wonderfully passionate educators and incredibly talented and hope-filled students. I must profess that education is not easy; not for teachers and not for students, but as we know, we grow the most when things aren’t easy!

I hope you also had times of celebration this year with your child’s journey as a young adult. And even when things were hard, you stuck to the plan and rode along the bumpy ride together. Thank you for your partnership and for riding with us.

As you look to 2024, please be aware of the important start dates to pop into your calendars.
