LOOKS MORE LIKE A SCHOOL EVERY DAY

While at MCHS today I took these photos after putting up some sample colors for the new exterior.


As you can see the exterior walls are all up for the addition and they have begun to apply the DensGlass Gold Sheathing to the exterior. The new exterior walls are fire rated with 2x6 fire treated studs and the special sheathing we are using. Additionally you can see the bundle of cement fiberboard that will be used on the addition creating an almost residential feeling. It has another benefit, beyond its fire retardant quality. This material never rots or becomes a termites lunch.

The exterior wall framing for the BAC is complete, as you see here. Those of you who have a child in the afterschool program will see them coming out of the door in the corner when you arrive in the afternoons.


The rough grading for the school has been completed so that we may now begin planning the retaining walls and fencing. The drainage for Miss Sarah's courtyard has not yet been installed but it is easy to see here how lovely it will be with the trees just outside her door.

Above you can see the combined nap area and Enrichment Class space. The steel post between the windows is the aproximate location of the sound proof folding partition that will divide the spaces yet allow them to be combined for meetings and parenting classes. With a large closet included so that plenty of adult size chairs will be readily on hand.

More exciting things to come next week!
