"We received approximately $3 million dollars to address facility improvements/upgrades. Apollo’s team was easy to work with and very professional. They met regularly with school staff. Apollo periodically set aside time to meet with the school board to conduct walk-throughs and make progress reports. Apollo produced quality work, adhered to project timelines, and stayed with in the budget. Frequent communication helped to build and maintain a high level of trust.

I would work with Apollo Solutions again if there were other grants. I have referred Apollo Solutions to other school districts in our area.
