Happy Friday! Today we are highlighting some of the businesses from our community that have been supporting our school over many years. As a reminder:
“Every dollar of the money allocated for the sponsorship fund is earmarked for student development—preparing them for their role in our community.”

Briefly share how your business started?
- Talley Farms: The Talley family has been farming produce in the Arroyo Grande Valley since 1948. For the last 70 years, we’ve been supplying fresh fruits and vegetables to our local area and all over the U.S. and Canada.
- Kevin Forsythe MD Inc.: I did my training in Chicago and after five years in Northern California, we moved here to raise our family on the central coast and I hung up a shingle.
- Sport Clips Hair Salon: Keshet and I bought the Sport Clips in SLO three years ago. We were involved in franchising and Sport Clips was a client for many years. We love the concept of a hair salon that caters to men and boys, so when the opportunity came up to buy this one, we took it.
Why have you chosen to sponsor SLOCA?
- Talley Farms: We are huge fans of SLOCA and have been since the school started 15 years ago. As a longtime SLOCA family, we often tell people “we came for the incredible classical curriculum, but stayed for the SLOCA community.” We’ve been educating our 3 students at SLOCA since 2009 and are grateful to the school for the impact it’s had on our family as a whole and our student’s love for learning.
- Kevin Forsythe MD Inc.: To help support our children’s education.
- Sport Clips Hair Salon: We love SLOCA. Our kids attend SLOCA so we love supporting the school and community. We give SLOCA families a discount on haircuts, so they can check us out.
How do you set yourself apart from other similar businesses?
- Talley Farms: At Talley Farms, we’re proud to have four generations of farming experience. We are a year-round program that offers a variety of in-season fruits and vegetables, organically grown when available, and on a delivery schedule that fits your needs.
- Kevin Forsythe MD Inc.: I have a great deal of experience with arthroscopic procedures and am double board-certified in Orthopedic Surgery and Orthopedic Sports Medicine.
- Sport Clips Hair Salon: We have our MVP treatment, which is the haircut, shampoo, hot steam towel, and neck and shoulder massage. I know a lot of guys don’t stop and relax very often. When I get my haircut, it’s one of the only times I stop and relax a bit!
Thank you to Talley Farms, Kevin Forsythe MD and Sport Clips for your continued support of our school! If you have a business that would like to support our school, please contact Debbie Lee for more information.
