“This initiative represents a significant milestone for the school and has garnered considerable support from the local community, with the backing City Councilman Brian Knudsen,” said Jennifer Braster, board chair of Sage Collegiate.
The school’s phase advancement was marked by a recent City of Las Vegas commission hearing, where local families and students showed up in support of Sage Collegiate. Knudsen, an advocate for educational development in the city, also supported the project, emphasizing its potential to positively impact the community and provide enhanced educational opportunities for local students.
The new development will be funded through financing provided by Red Hook Capital Partners. Sage Collegiate has received approval from the planning commission, with the groundbreaking expected in the Spring of 2024.
“We’re excited to embark on this transformative phase for Sage Collegiate. The construction of our second building marks a significant milestone,” said Sandra Kinne, lead founder and executive director at Sage Collegiate. “We are committed to providing an educational environment for our students to thrive.”
