To all of our students at the Technology Programs, held at the Greater Maple Valley Community Center, I want to thank each and every one of you for allowing us to support you in your path to learning technology and computer programming. It has been a great pleasure serving the Maple Valley, WA community and surrounding communities as well, and it is my hope that you will continue to use the services offered at the community center and the surrounding public services in your area.
The Spring 2026 Computer Literacy course will be the final course offered, until further notice, at the Greater Maple Valley Community Center. Afterwards, courses taught by myself, will not be offered until later notice.
The Technology Programs curriculum guidebooks and website will continue to operate as of this time, with no updates. As of this time, I will be offering FREE Tech Consulting Support (No Computer Hardware Repairs) for the public at the local community center over the Summer 2026 season (more information coming soon).
It was pleasure working with all of you. Thank you again for supporting me and these courses. You all make it happen!
