Through the many years that Trillium Charter School has been fighting for its existence, we have always pulled through somehow.  We have always kept the hope and vision alive. Today, although the hope and vision continue, the founders have made the very difficult decision that Trillium cannot go on.  We have fallen well short of our fundraising goals and we are quite short-staffed as well.  These two concerns made it clear to us that going forward was a not a realistic option.  We have officially withdrawn our charter application with the Office of Charter Schools, and Trillium will not open in 2012.

We know that this news with be tough for so many of us to receive.  For those who have followed us all along, we thank you for your perseverance.  For all of you who hoped to send your children to Trillium, we want to offer you hope.

Just as Trillium's founders and volunteers worked hard to spread the word of their vision, and all of you joined in to support that vision, each of you can also effect change, on your own or together.  Whether you send your children to the local public schools or private school, or you homeschool or join a cooperative, you have a voice and you can empower yourself to give your children the education they need and deserve.

With that goal in mind, we are looking to reorganize in a way that will help the parents and educators of our community find solutions.  If you would like to get involved, contact Sabine Rahman at sabine@trilliumedication.org.

We hope you will join in the fight and work toward a better future for our kids!
