Monetary and human resources have been properly allocated to achieve the best results. Mr. Watkins exemplified true leadership in the process and has implemented change which will move the district forward for years to come.

“My first year as Superintendent of the Marcola School District, I was very concerned about deferred maintenance on our two schools. The community supported our efforts to pass a bond for a new elementary school and implement a long- term facility plan for the district” stated Mr. Bill Watkins. “Government Capital Corporation provided us funding with very flexible rates to fix our existing maintenance issues and put a long-term deferred maintenance plan in place. The funding for the maintenance projects will actually save our district money in the long term.”

Facility upgrades are an important factor in the overall success of the District and more importantly the development of the students and faculty. District facilities and resources are the foundation of academic excellence. Government Capital Corporation is proud to support Marcola School District during this exciting time.

“I want to congratulate Marcola School District for being proactive in upgrading their facilities and maximizing their operational resources,” stated Stephanie Cates, Government Capital Corporation Client Manager. “Like most superintendents, Mr. Watkins, is continually being asked to do more with less. We at Government Capital are proud to have partnered with a great team on a wonderful project delivering tremendous benefits to the District and students.”
