Cornerstone Christian Academy students returning from summer break will find their campus in a much different state then when they left it. The school is undergoing a substantial expansion project, with the main purpose of creating more useable outdoor space.
“The pandemic has shown everyone the importance of usable outdoor spaces. These additional spaces will be transformative for our community,” Headmaster Colin Creel said.
According to Creel, the most visible change will be the demolition of the middle building and the creation of the campus mall which will include a stage on one end, similar to the one at Peachtree Corners Town Center on a smaller scale. A plaza will be constructed on the other end.
In addition, Cornerstone is adding a Middle School Plaza for the students to congregate, dine, have outdoor classes and fellowship. On the backside of the Lower School, they are adding a covered walkway to help with carpool as well as numerous infrastructure improvements, such as lighting and asphalt.
The total project cost comes to approximately 3 million, raised through the community and friends of Cornerstone coupled with internal resources that were set aside for this project. The current estimate for completion of the project is July 4.
