It has been a long 18-24 months for school officials throughout the country.
Administrators had to navigate the challenging, uncharted waters of maintaining quality education during a global pandemic that forced people to stay at home for over a year. They had extraordinarily difficult decisions to make about how to facilitate learning remotely, when to bring teachers and students back to campus, how to celebrate graduations, and what measures to take to prepare for something similar in the future.
This was all on top of the typical challenges they face balancing parents and student expectations, Budget constraints, test scores, and everything else that makes teachers and school administrators unsung heroes.
As life slowly returns to a version of normal, students and teachers are mostly back on campus. Administrators are now performing more standard versions of their jobs, such as scheduling everyday maintenance tasks.

This can be a lot for which to plan during your already complicated project. Yet, there are few products that pose a greater risk if not operated correctly.

For residents of the Charlotte area, ongoing construction is a way of life. People see building projects and do not even think twice. The exception might be if something is being built in their area and they are curious about whether or not it is an interesting new business.
