What the community is saying

"JRA has successfully designed projects for JCPS ranging in budget from $200,000 to $32 million. They did an excellent job at Eastern High School of identifying the building needs and responding with a design that was both appealing and practical. JRA’s construction phase management has always been thorough, with prompt replies and attention to details. I would not hesitate to use JRA on future projects."
