Another site visit, another milestone! 🌟
This week, we took an early walk through the space as windows and walls are taking shape. We got up close with the cement truck, learned how it all works, and even left our handprints behind as a little piece of history in the building itself. It`s one thing to talk about a space that will serve families for years to come, and another to actually see it rising from the ground!
A big thank you to Weil Construction for making this vision a reality!
Families are encouraged to join the waitlist for construction updates and enrollment opportunities.
