New this year is Ben Lippen’s $5.5 million Arts and Science Center. The 13,000 square foot learning space includes STEM, robotics, math, physics, chemistry, technology and fine arts classrooms where students can expand their God-given talents. The new building also offers an art gallery to display students’ creative side. The building will be dedicated on Oct. 30 at 11 a.m.
Ben Lippen School Headmaster Tony Fajardo says Ben Lippen welcomes the many new students and families to the school’s distinctively Christian environment where high academic standards are encouraged by dedicated teachers.
“Our investment in facilities, the impact of our teachers, and the word of mouth from parents has helped attract these new families to Ben Lippen,” Fajardo said. “We’re preparing our students for college and equipping them for life.”
