Dear Berkeley Hills families,
I am thrilled to announce that
thanks to a generous donation from the Aspire Foundation, established by Mr. and Mrs. Roscoe
, our students have an
amazing, new STEAMS Lab

Enjoy a sneak peek at the lab that has been
specifically developed to foster creativity, collaboration, problem-solving, imagination, life-skill development
, and much more!
We are
extremely grateful for the generosity of the Aspire Foundation
and their partnership with Eden Christian Academy at Berkeley Hills to create this
tremendous space for our students to develop their God-given talents
