A historic Boerne building is officially a school once again.

Crestmont moved from its previous campus at First Baptist Church of Boerne in their Family Life Building which will now get a chance to be remodelled after serving as classrooms.

The private Christian school serves students from kindergarten through 12th grade and operates under a University-Model approach that combines classroom instruction with parent-supported learning at home.

Thanks to the 30 students who gave up their Saturday to help our friends at Herff.
