This means that ACU reinstated Declan’s scholarship, and he will be able to return to school tomorrow. Without this scholarship, he would not have been able to return, so we are very, very grateful. “Thank you also for spending a great amount of time speaking with Declan about the choices he’s made that did not serve him well in the past and his plans for getting set up for success in the future.

You all have been a pleasure to work with and a tremendous blessing to our family.”
– Margaret, Rogers, and Declan
