The work was broken into three groups. The first work group was involved in primary engineering/internal repair of boilers, burners, and electrical upgrades.

A second portion of the work involved exterior repairs, roof work, window replacement and site work. This work can be performed year-round in good construction weather without spacing construction time into the school schedule.

The third work group was involved in new classroom additions and modifications to existing classrooms. This group of programs would involve the interaction and time consideration of the school-day and school-year schedule. The work group was divided between two architectural firms.

The $19 million project was coordinated by DiGeronimo for the Board of Education without a single lawsuit, without a single defaulted contractor, and without a single material failure.
