President Obama visits Capital City Public Charter School, designed by Shinberg.Levinas.
When I was your age, I wanted to be an architect. President Obama, speaking to a Cap City student.
"We're very proud of what's been accomplished at this school and we want to make sure that we're duplicating that success all across the country. So nothing is going to be more important than this. And the recovery and reinvestment act that we've put forward will provide billions of dollars to build schools and help with school construction." President Obama said.

President and Mrs. Obama toured the school, which was renovated by Shinberg.Levinas and opened in 2000. They then read "The Moon Over Star," a children's book about Neil Armstrong's moon landing.
