“I cannot wait to have a 15-year-old talk to me about design-build and P3s.”
That 15-year-old, for Phillip Washington, would be a future student at the SEED School of Los Angeles County, a planned college-prep boarding school focusing on transportation and infrastructure careers for vulnerable youth. Construction began on the school last October, with 125 students expected in 2022. The school is the result of efforts by Washington, CEO of the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro), in partnership with L.A. County.
