” This dedication has made Centex the preferred choice for many major clients, including Tesla and Amazon. The Robb Elementary project is no different. Centex’s role in the rebuild involves the erection of the steel framework that will serve as the backbone of the new school. As Angela described it, “Our portion of the project is critical. We’re dealing with the structural steel, and we have to make sure it’s not just durable, but that it stands the test of time.” A Heartfelt Project The emotional weight of working on a project like the Robb Elementary rebuild is not lost on the Centex team. While Angela and James may oversee operations, they are deeply connected to their workers and the impact the project has on everyone involved. “Our guys are out there working 70-hour weeks because they want to see this through,” Angela said. “For us, it’s about giving the community a place where they can feel safe again. We know we can’t erase the pain, but we hope that this new building will offer some peace.” Throughout the project, the Centex team has felt the support of the Uvalde community. “The people in Uvalde have been amazing,” Angela noted. “When we go into town, people ask us what we’re doing, and when they hear it’s the school, they just want to help however they can. There’s such a strong sense of community here, and it’s been incredibly moving to be a part of that.”
