Milestone presented a $25,000 check to Washington Irving Middle School on Thursday. The check ceremony took place during the stacking of Milestone’s new tower in Fairfax County.

School principal, Danny Little, accepted the check. “We will be using the income from the tower to support student use of technology for learning and staff development,” said Little.

Milestone is constructing a stealth wireless tower with antennas closely mounted to the pole to minimize visual impact. The Irving tower will be the third tower built on a Fairfax County middle school.

This will be the 26th wireless facility to be built on a Fairfax County School. The wireless infrastructure program has generated more than $5 million in revenue for the school system in the past ten years and currently generates $1 million a year in re-occurring income.
