New Homes: How long does it take to build from scratch?
As with any major project, there’s a timeline. Pushing too hard against that timeline can cause slip ups. Yet time wasted by builders and crews is also a negative. Then you’re not getting into your new home because of delays made by bad management or simple ineptitude on the part of contractors or subcontractors. Make sure these steps are followed, and check on progress. Don’t leave it up to the site manager to keep you in the loop at all times.

Kona School Downtown Jacksonville FL - Exterior
Among all the creators in the recent One Spark Jacksonville event in April, the Kona School turned out to be an idea that has found its mark, as the their creative team showed off a concept that turned more than a few heads. Their efforts resulted in winning the high honor of first place in individual contributions, with a total prize money of more than $5,500.
Last week Kona School joined creators from all over the world in showcasing their creative projects at One Spark, the world’s first crowdfunding festival. One Spark was a huge opportunity for Kona School to showcase a completely innovative learning model and they were rewarded with more than money. The positive feedback from students, parents, investors, and other creators will be the impetus for these creators to turn this idea into reality, when the Kona School opens its doors in time for the 2014 School season.
Forget those preconceived notions of what a public high school should be. The fact is, learning continues far after high school has come and gone, so why not just feed our kinds with what they need to know now, but instill a penchant for learning that is a continuous, expanding process in an environment that provides life motivation and encourages collaboration and creativity. In short, teach kids to ultimately be responsible for their own learning. After all, isn’t that the way the world actually works?
