M Space Helps School Recover from Disaster

Illinois Congressman Hare, Illinois Senator Demuzio and M Space tour the newly installed Modular Complex at Community Unit School District #7 in Gillespie, Illinois.

On Monday, November 23, 2009, Congressman Phil Hare, Senator Deanna Demuzio, M Space Marketing Director, Nora McGrath and M Space Territory Manager, David Wahl were on site in Gillespie, IL to tour the newly installed Modular Classroom Complex.  Benld Elementary School was in desperate need of a new facility after the mine underneath the school collapsed, resulting in the building being condemned. When the school was no longer accessible, the elementary school students and staff were relocated to the Gillespie Middle and High School Campus and the district was forced to finish the school year on a split-day schedule.  The school district needed additional classroom and administrative space, fast.  Congressman Hare helped the school district acquire federal funds for the lease the modular complex.

Gillespie School District chose to work with M Space because they were able to provide all the classroom and office space the school district needed under one roof.  The M Space modular complex provided the school district with a timely, cost effective and secure solution. M Space worked diligently to install the modular building as quickly as possible so the school district could return to normal school attendance during the 2009 school year.
