School Under Construction

Laurel Mara is getting a fresh start. After significant flooding earlier this year, we're using this time to restore and reimagine the space — and we'll be back better than ever this fall. In the meantime, our Rochester Hills community is thriving right alongside our Sage Mara families in Bloomfield Hills
