As we close out the 2024–2025 school year, it’s almost hard to believe how quickly the time has passed. This year has been full of growth, discovery, and meaningful progress—both within our K–12 school and across our ever-expanding outreach programs.

Miriam School and Learning Center is pleased to announce the appointment of five members to the board of directors. These additions will support the nonprofit’s work to empower unique learners, bringing the total number of board members to 22. The board also appointed Darcy Scharff as president-elect, in line to take over the presidency from Kristen Bowser on July 1, 2026.

This past Saturday, we gathered for our second annual Minds in Bloom Gala—a truly special evening that brought us together to celebrate our shared mission: transforming the lives of children who learn differently and supporting those who love and care for them.

Thanks to our incredibly generous community, the Second Annual Minds in Bloom Spring Soiree was a huge success! The event, held on Saturday, April 5, at Clayton Plaza Hotel, raised more than $212,000 in total, with $121,308 specifically going to our Fund the Future scholarship fund to help make Miriam more affordable for families who need us.
