On February 29, the Paychex Junior Achievement Discovery Center celebrated its grand opening with a ribbon cutting ceremony. LeChase served as the design-builder on the project and is also a sponsor of one of the 19 storefronts within the center.
LeChase Executive Vice President and COO Kyle Sayers attended the event and cut the ribbon for the new LeChase storefront alongside Vice President Raymond LeChase II, Project Manager Dave Martello and Superintendent Johnny Mueller.
The completed Discovery Center – the first of its kind in New York State – provides students with the opportunity to put classroom lessons to the test as they become citizens in a simulated economy and learn about different careers, workforce readiness and financial literacy.
