The Monarch School

Rochester, NH -The Monarch School recently held its grand opening and will serve students who have a range of physical and or mental conditions that make the learning environment they need different. Children with autism, mental handicaps, and physical handicaps are all served by the school and taught in ways that work for them. This school will serve communities from all over New Hampshire, Southern Maine, and Massachusetts.

Throughout the project, Rick Lundborn of CLD | Fuss & O’Neill, the site engineers, helped the school in selecting other professionals like geotechnical engineers and contractors to help with the project

Companies also involved in the project were Jewett Construction Co.; SUR Construction; S.W. Cole Engineering, Inc.; HBLA, Inc.; and Destefano Architects. These New England businesses all saw the importance of the Monarch School’s mission and provided service at reduced fees or donated directly to the construction cost.

Harold and Josephine Jacobs donated the 8.8 acres of the land that was originally part of their farm.

“It has been incredibly rewarding, and I was allowed along the way to help the Monarch School assemble a team of engineers and contractors that also felt their mission was one worth helping,” said Rick Lundborn, CLD|Fuss & O’Neill.
