Back-to-school makeover includes cleaning,
fresh paint and artwork
On August 5, 2014, more than 100 Constellation employees teamed
up to help the Crossroads School in Harbor East prepare classroom
space for the school year. During the school makeover event, five
Constellation departments competed to do the best job cleaning and
painting classrooms, and a panel of Crossroads students voted for
the winning group. This year, Constellation’s retail team took
first place with their artistic design of the “Crossroads Promises”
on an interior hallway.

competition,” said James Bond, president and CEO of the Living

our learning environment, which will positively impact both
teachers and students.”
“Giving back to the communities we serve is a key part of
Constellation’s culture,” said Joseph Nigro, CEO of Constellation
and board member for the Living Classrooms Foundation. “We are
proud of our employees’ long-standing volunteerism and their
contributions to support the Crossroads School in providing
students with improved classroom space for the new school
year.”
