Junior Achievement Discovery Center for Augusta

Size: 30,000 SF

McKnight Construction managed the construction of the Junior Achievement Center of Augusta, also known as the JA Discovery Center of the CSRA. This facility was a full build out of 30,000 square feet within a larger complex and is designed to serve up to 15,000 students annually.  The center features two key programs: JA BizTown and JA Finance Park, which provide middle school students with hands-on experiences in entrepreneurship, financial literacy, and career readiness. This was a CM at Risk project in collaboration with both the Columbia County School District and the Richmond County School System.  Each booth required unique specifications and finishes, but McKnight proactively managed the project to finish on time and on budget.
