The construction of the new LC Skerry School began with the demolition of two existing schools that were built in the mid 1900s. Built into the side of a hill, the new two-storey school employed the use of retaining walls and tilt-up construction methods for the building envelope.

With Bird’s firm schedule and keen organization skills, construction was expedited on time for the upcoming school year. Bird was able to fast-track the schedule by performing the demolition and construction of the new structure concurrently, which required extensive coordination between Bird and its subcontractors.
