Twenty years later, Executive Director Cindy Keller and Principal Starranne Meyers have educated thousands of students with special needs at Guiding Hands.
The El Dorado Hills campus (built from the ground up 15 years ago) now serves 170 students from Preschool through High School (ages 2-19). Privately and district-placed students come to Guiding Hands School from 23 districts in four different counties. Fully accredited for K-12 by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), high school students can graduate from Guiding Hands with a high school diploma. Since it was founded, Guiding Hands School has been certified by the California Department of Education and licensed by Community Care Licensing.
Of this milestone, Starranne Meyers explains, “It is not that we have achieved our dreams, rather the dreams of others have just begun.”
On Thursday, June 13, from 10a.m. to 1p.m., the community is invited to join school administration, staff, current families, alumni and school district representatives in a celebration marking the 20th Anniversary of Guiding Hands School, including a Parent Resource Fair, Live Entertainment, Food, Art, Commemorative Items, Bounce Houses, a Photo Booth, and a recognition ceremony.
The event is sponsored by Big O Tires of El Dorado Hills, First Northern Bank, Sacramento Parent Magazine, Sysco, Law Office of Michael Pearce, Attachment & Trauma Treatment Center and Neuro-Feedback Solutions.
