San Diego, CA (August 20, 2024) – On Wednesday, Aug. 21, the San Diego Unified School District will host a ceremony alongside Erickson-Hall Construction Co. to celebrate the milestones of completing Phase 1 and beginning Phase 2 of the Einstein Academy Charter Elementary School modernization project.

School officials, community leaders and Erickson-Hall representatives will be on hand for a ribbon-cutting ceremony on a new, 5,220 square-foot multi-purpose building with four attached kindergarten classrooms and associated concrete paving and landscaping. This work involved the demolition and rebuilding of Building D, with grading and underground utility work.

The event will also mark the groundbreaking of the next phase of the Einstein Academy Charter Elementary modernization project. Erickson-Hall will start construction on a new two-story, 18-classroom building and renovations on the former multi-purpose room to convert into a new school library and kitchen with a servery area.

Members of the media are invited to attend. The ceremony will begin at 4 p.m. outside Building D at Einstein Academy Charter Elementary School (3035 Ash St, San Diego, CA 92102).

“We are honored to work alongside the San Diego Unified School District in transforming Einstein Academy Charter Elementary School into a modern, vibrant learning environment,” said Mat Gates, President of Erickson-Hall Construction Co. “This milestone is a testament to the collaborative efforts of our dedicated team and the community. As we embark on the next phase of the project, our focus remains on creating innovative, sustainable spaces that will inspire the next generation of students.”
