The primary funding for the project comes from the U.S. Department of Education, provided over $20million, and supplemented by contributions from the Interior and FEMA. TRMA handled the architectural design of the building, and Core Tech, a company based in Guam, serves as the principal contractor. To play a small but essential part of this rebuilding project, Ledes, a professional electrical conduit manufacturer, supported the whole electrical system installations with its Schedule 40 & 80 rigid PVC conduit.
