Several faculty and staff office spaces were moved in preparation for this 2024-2025 school year.

Overall, these changes put all the Student Services offices in the Student Service Hallway.

One of the major changes was the location of the Health Suite. The Health Suite moved from the Administrative Hallway diagonal from the main office to the Student Services Hallway right near the Deans’ Office.

Nurse Stacy Quigg said the reason for their office move was to be “closer to Student Services and provide more space and privacy for our students.”

The Health Suite change comes with many advantages.

Mrs. Quigg said, “One advantage is we are closer to the rest of the Student Services team, and we work very closely with them to meet the needs of our students.”

Even with all the advantages, there are some things Nurse Karen Smith and Mrs. Quigg will miss about their old office.

“I will miss hearing the students in band and voice classes, as well as the music that was played in gym classes,” said Mrs. Smith.

For the office change the Health Suite was renovated.

Mrs. Smith said, “In our office specifically, they updated the whole area with fresh paint and new floors, and they made two separate treatment areas. One of the areas can now be used for telehealth appointments.”

Another move was the Mission and Ministry office.

The Mission and Ministry office relocated to the area that last year housed  the Admissions Office near the chapel.

Mission and Ministry staff including Ms.Katie Smith, Mr. Rhys Gadbois, Deacon Ken Goedeke, and Father Zach Watson are now together.

Ms. Smith commented, “It makes sense to have the Campus Ministry office by the chapel and the rest of the Student Services.”

“Last year, members of the Campus Ministry Team were in separate offices, so it was challenging to find time for everyone to meet,” said Ms. Smith.

One of the main reasons for the move of the Campus Ministry office was that “our team wanted to be present with students, and it was difficult with everyone in different spaces,” Ms. Smith shared.

Another move was for The Admissions Office which moved from the area near the chapel to the Main Office Hallway, taking the place of the Health Suite.

The main reason for their office move was to be closer to the administration, to be closer to the front of the building, and to allow for all the student services to be together.

Associate Director of Admissions Caroline Adolph said, “We can easily greet prospective families as they come in and have a place to meet with them as needed. We love having a bathroom for those families to use as well.”

Another of the office changes is Director of Student Services Larry Hensley’s office as he moved into the office that formally housed the Mission and Ministry Office.

His office only moved one over and he said, “it was hard for me to leave the office I started in”.

Mr. Hensley explained this was the last phase of bringing the groups from Student Services together in one place.
