RALEIGH, NC – (Jan. 8 2019) – Continuing to follow its strategic capital improvement plan, the Wake County Public School System (WCPSS) is moving full speed ahead with its goal to provide students with progressive and dynamic learning experiences.

WCPSS recently tapped Cumming, an international project management and cost consulting firm, to provide executive oversight and to oversee the $2.4 billion dollar 7-year Continuous Capital Improvement Plan and Real Estate Services Department. Experts in educational construction project and cost management services, Cumming will provide executive oversight for the District’s Facility, Design & Construction Department (FD&C).
