The expansion will include state-of-the-art STEAM (Science Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math) rooms including augmented reality technology for immersive learning, fine arts room, and new multipurpose hall for school gatherings needing larger spaces, such as: chapel, fine arts events, and other large-format instruction curriculum. The multipurpose room will be equipped with a full audio and visual production technology to support events and student educational courses.
