We have officially completed the construction of the new division and remodel of the existing part of Andrew Wilson Elementary School, located right in New Orleans.
The neighborhood-run charter school is currently in a temporary facility, but will move into the rebuilt Wilson School building when it is completed.
The Wilson School, Keller Library & Broadmoor Community Center will serve as the anchors of the Education Corridor. The residents of Broadmoor decided to use education as the central and distinguishing concept around which they rebuild their neighborhood. The Wilson school will be made up of green LEED certified buildings.
We would like to thank everyone who was part of this project.
Take a look at the Andrew Wilson completion gallery for picture of the school.

Helping Honduras
Wednesday, December 2, 2009
It is time again for us all to come together and do what we can for the people of Honduras. As you know, last year we were able to raise enough money to help two rest homes and several families with food baskets and cleaning supplies.
This year we want to do that, but raise the bar by helping more families and extending our donations to La Ceiba area orphanages.
Anything you can contribute counts. To give you an idea, $90.00 can feed a family of 6 for a month. As you can see, even a small donation can go a long way in Honduras.
If you feel inclined, you can donate via Paypal or via mail:

Additionally, you can send your pledge via email to donate@itecdrywall.com.
You can download the official flyer and pass it on to your friends and family.
A Special Thanks to Richard Riley, Tom Baird, Carl Brooks, Tim Tarpley, Ramone Medina, Rickey Shelton, Sarah Branham, Diana Hyrdrick and Tom Smallwood for donating to this great cause.
Black Hawk Bound
Saturday, October 24, 2009
ITEC Drywall is headed to Black Hawk, Colorado this weekend to start a project with Roy Anderson Corp. The Project is a remodel of the Lady Luck Casino in Black Hawk, located 1 hour outside of Denver. This project is the kickoff for the much larger Isle Casino Hotel Remodel that is scheduled to start in January.
On board for this trip will be Paul Isaacks (ITEC General Project Manger), Cory Jeansonne (ITEC General Superintendent) and a handful of our top journeymen. We are very excited as this will be our first opportunity to work in western United States and develop a lasting relationship with a new general contractor, Roy Anderson Corp.
Production going Strong
Friday, October 9, 2009
Production is going strong on Andrew Wilson Elementary to complete the school under a grueling deadline. We have mobilized 30+ of our best ITEC employees on site anticipating a complete sheetrock hang out in less than 5 days.
Pictured George Swanson listens intently to Walton Construction's Roy Vortisch on the next steps to complete some of the more pressing issues that need to be complete so that ITEC can complete sheetrock uninterrupted.
As Andrew Wilson Finishes, a Familiar Face Returns
Tuesday, September 29, 2009
We are nearing completion of Andrew Wilson Elementary School, after starting just over a year ago in September. Like a long distance race, the final lap of a project is often the most tedious of all and requires a focused effort. With that in mind, we at ITEC Drywall are proud to welcome back George Swanson to the fray. George will be taking the lead wrapping up loose ends and QC’ing ITEC’s punch work with the same skill and attention to detail he demonstrated in the final months of Tidewater Condominiums, a Panama City Beach condominium.
