Construction brings changes

The inconvenient routes and noise around campus aim to make our school better. Vice principal David Tanuvasa supervises construction jobs being done at school.

To comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, our school is improving walkways and building ramps. The pathway by W-building has been improved. No longer is it a bumpy walkway but instead a smooth concrete one. A ramp has been attached to the side of W-building also.

The project “€œfocuses on building ramps on our campus to ensure access for those that are not capable of using the steps,”€ Tanuvasa explained.

Even with the inconvenience and noise, our school is reaping benefits.

Tanuvasa said, “Our campus benefits as we become compliant with federal laws, Title lX and Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. It only makes our school a place that takes care of people.”

Construction will be completed in June 2011.
