2019_10 - KLA Construction Progress

October was a monumental month at the Kosovo Leadership Academy.  Phase 2 was completed!
This includes the entire shell of the class room wing with 18 of 28 classrooms completed.  The classrooms will be capable of housing Pre-K through 12th Grade students.  In addition to the classrooms there are public toilets, staff toilets, staff workrooms, a "grand staircase", elevator, principal's office, attic storage and access to the Phase 1 gymnasium mezzanine where parents can watch their kids competing.

Not only are the kids thrilled to have these beautiful, naturally lighted, clean classrooms, but so are the teachers.  For the past several years the teachers have been room sharing in the multipurpose spaces of phase 1.  Now each teacher can set up their classroom the best way to educate the kids for their specific subjects.

But the work is not done yet.  There are still 9 more classrooms to be completed as well as athletic fields including soccer, basketball, tennis, playgrounds, open play fields and a baseball diamond.  More parking, site lighting, drainage, restrooms and other site amenities will also be in Phase 3.
Thank you for partnering with the KLA in making a difference in the lives of these kids and their families!
