Krutulis PK-8 Campus. The center is the first major construction undertaken as part of the school's new master plan. It is also part of Gulliver's long-term plan to consolidate its four academic campuses into two.[6]

Campuses[edit]

The school reports more than 2,200 students enrolled at two campuses.[7]

Snay's daughter, Dana Snay, posted information about the settlement on social media and the social media post was used as evidence that the Snays had violated the non-disclosure agreement with Gulliver Preparatory; courts ultimately ruled in the school's favor.[10]
