Pilgrim’s Gift Funded Education Pavilion and Swings for Playground at Battle Academy

This project gave Battle Academy its first outdoor dedicated educational space for the 500 students in kindergarten through 5th grade who attended. The pavilion enabled Battle Academy to offer a greater variety of learning experiences with the additional space, and the swings provided children with an outdoor activity the school had not previously had.
