In the News What's New DeWitt donates construction for Ronald McDonald House
Located next to what will become a new St. John’s pediatric intensive care unit, the Ronald McDonald House will help families of sick and injured children and high-risk maternity patients with both overnight stays and daytime visits, providing a “home away from home,” meals through the Family Dinner Program, laundry facilities, napping areas, e-mail access, quiet rooms for breast feeding and many more homelike services hosted by staff and volunteers who truly care. Additionally, DeWitt is working with the Missouri Career Center to allow some disadvantaged young people the opportunity to work thru the holidays to improve their work experience and outlook for the future. Sustainability in EducationThe most recent LEED project that we can add to our list of experience is the Hickory Hills K-8 School. With sustainability always a part of the design process, the School Board decided to take the next step and pursue LEED certification. The project is designed to achieve the Silver category for Schools certification. The site has been designed as a whole, so that when the building and its exterior features are constructed they all work together to create a new ecosystem. This feature, and several others, will be utilized not only by the students and faculty, but will be a contribution to the community, making the new Hickory Hills K-8 School truly a public project.
