We did it!!!


August 4, 2011
The work done over the past few weeks has been amazing.
The building is right on schedule and we are less than a week away
from completion. Here are the latest pictures of the
progress.



July 13, 2011
The exterior of the building is almost complete and the
interior walls have been put up. There is a lot of work going
on at the school and watching the building take shape has been
really exciting. Here are the latest pictures of the
progress.

The building is starting to take shape. After a little
rain that put us about a day or so behind, the sun is out and the
steel is going up.

The plumbing was dug and installed and then the concrete
foundation for the building was poured. It will take about 4
days to settle and then we will start to construct
the steel structure for the building.

Changes since the Town Hall Meeting:
We will NOT have to move the playground or
relocate the retention pond on our property. In fact, we have
moved the location of the Interim Building from behind the current
gymnasium to our new property where the "old house" currently
sits. This location change will reduce our site preparation
costs and help limit interference and distractions to the current
campus. These are very exciting changes as they will allow us
to begin the project in April and also help keep our costs down. In
addition, this building will now include a full science lab as well
as classrooms for our scholars.
February 10 and 15, 2011

- Interim Building
