Floodwood School

Floodwood Schools came to us seeking guidance in managing the construction of a major project. We provided them with high-level expertise—and public relations—to meet their goals.

Standing out as the clear choice.

The superintendent of Floodwood Schools was faced with a dilemma. His school was running out of room, and he needed a company who could advise his board on the construction of a major addition and remodel. Ideally, this firm would fulfill the duties of construction management while also advocating for the district’s best interests. After researching his options, he decided on the company with the best track record: Nor-Son.

Keeping the local community informed.

Our pre-construction services included helping the school present the project to their community in a bond referendum. Afterward, we took over all public relations relating to this project for the school district, allowing them to focus on their students during the school year. To keep the lines of communication open, we attended monthly board meetings to showcase progress on the project, as well as going out of our way to provide personalized answers to questions from the town’s supportive and involved citizens.

Ensuring the safety of our most precious assets.

As construction was underway, students were attending school. With some thoughtful scheduling, we were able to avoid disrupting the classroom work without cancelled classes or temporary classrooms. Other aspects of student life were similarly unaffected. We undertook the necessary safety precautions to allow students access to the playgrounds and athletic fields near the construction site.
