Donning hard hats and construction vests, Uncommon School’s 9th grade engineering students joined KSS Partner Matt McChesney and Project Architect Mounir Tawadrous on a site tour of their future high school. For one day, the bustling construction site transformed into a hands-on, interactive classroom, bringing project lessons learned and best practices to life through conversations between architects, contractors, and students.
KSS had a blast sharing our knowledge about various phases of the project, from approvals through design and construction.
Students left the tour with a deep impression of the process: “I have a new appreciation for the planning and work that goes into such a building, especially seeing the work of the 64 people working on the building during its construction.” Thanks for this exciting opportunity to share our experience with Uncommon’s bright students!
