BUILD PROJECT

SMART HOME INTEGRATION & CLIMATE CONTROL

SUNRISE, SUNSET AND SEA VIEW IN ALL APARTMENTS

THE VISION

Our purpose, in partnership with families and community, is to develop each youth intellectually, artistically, emotionally, physically, and socially so that all students are life-long learners, complex thinkers, responsible global citizens and effective communicators.

"Few opportunities are afforded to students to gain practical skills in an end-to-end project.

How many students can say they designed, built and sold a home while still in high school?
