Keene Middle School is a model for all schools. It sets the standard to which all future school construction projects should strive to attain. It demonstrates what is possible when the right team is assembled and focused on a common goal even with a limited resources. Your employees and sub-contractors were asked to do a number of things on this project that were out of the ordinary. They met the challenge with confidence and skill. The result is a facility that far exceeds other schools in providing a healthy place for learning, protecting our environment, and reducing operating costs. You can be very proud of their work.
