CHICAGO, IL– Chicago-based Tandem Construction announces it
has started work on a 2,000-square-foot addition to The Academy of
Scholastic Achievement (ASA), a Youth Connection Charter School Campus
(YCCS) located at 4651 W. Madison Street on Chicago’s West side.
When complete, the new space will serve as a science lab to
support the non-profit, public charter high school’s holistic educational
program for at-risk students.

“Having been involved
with other school and non-profit projects in the past, we know the real
satisfaction that comes from updating a facility to better serve the needs of
children,” said Dimitri Nassis, CEO of Tandem Construction.
“It’s been a real
pleasure to work with ASA’s founder, Gladys Simpson and the project
coordinator, Marvin Simpson, to plan this addition and to now finally see it
underway and taking shape.”
Built in a former
parking lot adjacent to ASA’s current 9,000-square-foot two-story facility, the
science lab addition is a steel joist and masonry structure that will seat
approximately 24 students. Tandem will be installing ventilation hoods and
special air circulation systems to support the space’s function as a lab
classroom.
