How much does building a school really cost?
Educational Facility Establishment Methods.
There are two methods of school establishment and the cost of each is largely dependent on the method used to form the school. Outlined below are the two school establishment methods along with key attributes for each scenario. In all aspects of operation, we seek to operate with a cost conscious approach, with a focus on the most economical way to proceed while maintaining safety, quality and sustainability. Full construction is preferred as it is more sustainable and has less of an administrative burden. Andino International, Inc. is not and does not intend to become a property owner. All construction projects are done on municipal land with written state approval. Construction is performed by professional contractors.
