Later, in April 2004, a preschool immersion program was opened in the Dora Reed Childcare Center;[13][2] these children comprised the first kindergarten class when the school opened.[10] Chief Michell Hicks was largely responsible for finally establishing the academy, which before opening in its current location underwent a $6.5 million renovation funded by the EBCI and a $1.3 million grant from the Cherokee Preservation Foundation. The academy is located on the 309-acre site[26] of the former Boundary Tree hotel and resort.[13] After four years of moving between buildings, New Kituwah opened in its newly-remodeled, permanent building on September 8, 2009,[14] and the school held its grand opening ceremony on October 7, 2009.[15] OperationsTotal Cherokee immersion is enforced at New Kituwah—in addition to the students, teachers, staff, and administrators also must avoid English.[16] Inside the school is a prominent sign that states "English stops here."[17][18] Parents as well as students are subject to admissions interviews in order to demonstrate a commitment to Cherokee immersion at home.[1] New Kituwah produced a Cherokee translation of E. B. White's Charlotte's Web; one copy was given to the White estate and New Kituwah kept 200 books.[19] Other posters and materials in Cherokee are designed by local artists and printed nearby.[17] In order to meet North Carolina's education standards, the school begins to introduce English to students in the later grades.[20] Since its opening, New Kituwah has maintained a four-star license with the North Carolina Division of Child Development.[2] References1. ^1 {{cite journal |last1=Redmond |first1=Mary Lynn |last2=Wiethaus |first2=Ulrike |title=The Atse Kituwah Academy: An Immersion Model that Holds the Key to the Future of the Cherokee Language and Culture |journal=Learning Languages |date=Fall 2009 |volume=15 |issue=1 |pages=34–37 |url=https://eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ871246 |issn=1083-5415 |id={{ERIC|EJ871246}}}} {{Cherokee}}2. ^1 2 {{cite web |last1=McKie |first1=Scott |title=Seven Years!
