Complete Campuses

Delivered via design-build, the $51 million TK-8th grade school was built on a 12-acre site by a partnership of JL Modular, Otto Construction and NMR Architects. Completed in 2021, the new two-story school features three buildings with 35 classrooms and an administration/ library building. It serves 850 students.

This project used permanent modular construction techniques, which combine the form and function of traditional site-built construction with the
speed and cost efficiency of the modular construction process. The steel-framed buildings were pre-fabricated in modular sections off-site that were transported to the site, erected and finished. This method helped shorten the overall construction schedule and kept costs down.

Built in 12 months on a fast-track schedule, Riego Creek is an entirely new school to accommodate Roseville’s growing population. JLC, in conjunction with JL Modular and DCA Architects, designed and built the school using JL Modular’s Prodigi21 DSA prechecked classroom design.

Features include:
-6 Kindergarten and TK classrooms with play structure
-3 learning community clusters organized by grades with outdoor learning space and shade structures
-28 classrooms plus associated restrooms, small group instruction rooms
-4000 square foot multipurpose building with warming kitchen and stage
-Administration building with associated offices

JL Construction and its affiliate JL Modular, oversaw this project which was completed with school completely operational during the entire project.
The addition added three new permanent modular buildings. The first building is the administration which serves as the focal point for the entry. The building includes receptions, offices and faculty meeting rooms. Two new buildings house three kindergarten and three transitional kindergarten (TK) classrooms and associated restrooms. The building design was a proprietary JL Modular design which is pre-approved by the Division of the State Architect which ensures faster approval and construction.

JL Modular designed and built seven classroom buildings plus an administration building for this complete school replacement. There are a total of 21 classrooms plus associated restrooms. The classroom design used JL Modular’s DSA prechecked clerestory design to save design and approval times and ensure the classrooms would be open on the first day of school in August 2019. The administration building features a welcoming school entrance, community room, administration offices and conference rooms.

Summit Shasta High School in Daly City, CA opened for students in August 2018. The school was built by JL Construction (JLC), in conjunction with JL Modular (JLM), with Artik Art & Architecture.

Summit Shasta is a new 400-student public charter high school on 2.5 acres in Daly City, CA, south of San Francisco.

JLC provided overall project management and utilities, parking and all outdoor learning spaces and landscaping while JLM provided the modular school buildings.

The campus has five 1-story modular buildings totaling 26,000 square feet. There are:

• 10 standard classrooms
• two science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) classrooms
• one special education classroom with associated office
• an administration space
• a large multipurpose building

The gym is large enough for a full basketball court plus bleachers as well as all-school gatherings.

Mabel Mattos Elementary School is a two building campus which is designed to be expanded to an 800-student elementary school.
The two-story steel frame buildings connected by a metal staircase were designed by AEDIS Architects and total 19,258 square feet.
The first phase features:
• A two-story modular classroom building with eight classrooms
• An adjacent two-story administration building
• All underground utilities for future phases

The new school for the Woodland Joint Unified School District was built by JL Modular in conjunction with HMC Architects and Otto Construction.
JLM was responsible for the construction of the modular buildings including the:
• administration building
• three kindergarten classrooms
• eight classrooms with adjacent collaboration spaces and restrooms
• a student center with library
JLM worked with HMC Architects to design and build the classroom buildings within one of JLM’s standard customizable classroom designs, which is preapproved by the California Division of the State Architect. This preapproval saved months in design and approval time.
The school offers a unique STEAM and project-based learning program that builds 21st-century skills. Design features and unique architectural elements include:
• Collaboration space between classrooms
• Limited built-ins for flexible use of classroom space
• Mobile furniture for adaptable spaces
• Natural lighting from windows
• Outdoor learning areas
• Mixed-use student center

Three building campus totaling 7,000 square feet. Features include a four-classroom building, admin building with teacher’s lounge, and multipurpose/gathering building with divider wall and warming kitchen. Buildings feature extensive green elements including clerestories and Solatubes for natural lighting.

With their current campus being a maze of ancient portable structures, the East Side Union High School District needed a permanent solution for their Adult Education campus. The solution was a combination of single and two-story modular buildings to be built around a central courtyard.

JLM took on the design-build project utilizing their traditional steel moment frame design for the single story buildings, and a prefabricated structural steel and metal wall framed design for the two story buildings. The new buildings provided 20 new classrooms, a full administrative office building, a student lounge building, a book room, and two computer labs.

A unique collaboration between San Jose Evergreen Community College District, and Milpitas Unified School District, the new Joint Use 21st Century Education Center provides 13,000 square feet of new classrooms for high school and college students. The classrooms are designed around a central courtyard and a Hub, to foster collaboration and learning. High school students will use the building during the day and college students will use the building at night. The new building provides lecture classrooms, biology lab, robotics, technology and standard classrooms. Designed to be LEED Silver, the building incorporates several sustainable and efficient building systems.
