A Holiday Letter from Brehm Executive Director Dr. Richard Collins

"Hope, giving, trust, thoughtfulness, and renewal are all
emphasized at Brehm, with the most important factor being FAMILY."
- Dr. Richard Collins, Executive Director

Brehm is a melting pot of students from all over the United States and students from around the world. The Holiday season gives us the opportunity to celebrate cultural events and gives us the opportunity to understand cultural differences in a manner which is informal and intimate.

It is interesting to me that each year we expand our campus, our students are enriched by the diversity. The diversity however, always comes back to our students having a greater appreciation of the commonalities that exist. Hope, giving, trust, thoughtfulness, and renewal are all emphasized at Brehm, with the most important factor being FAMILY.

We are so lucky to be able to look beyond the 'obvious differences' which most people see. We have and taken advantage of our family boarding experience to share the breathe and depth of who our students are and what they bring to enrich all our lives.

Let's continue to focus on the strength of our students. Celebrate the successes, share our experiences and mutually grow from our commitment to excellence. We have a great family here at Brehm. We all benefit from our mutual enlightenment. Have a great Holiday Season and Happy New Year.
