This project consists of the renovation of an existing stadium at Rancho San Juan High School. The scope of work consists of new 1,500-seat grandstands, a 2,000SF restroom/concession building, new field and pathway lighting, new all-weather track, security fencing, varsity baseball backstop extension, and a 300 sq.ft. greenhouse.

This innovative Design-Build project provided over 30,000 SF of new ground-up facilities and 24,000 SF of heavy modernization to create an entirely new campus on the original site dating back to the 1960’s. Greer Elementary School builds upon a custom modular classroom design developed by the architect and built by Otto. This was done to help meet a strictly phased construction schedule and to maintain full operations of the campus of over 500 students during construction. The project provides 21st century collaborative learning environments for its K-5 students, including outdoor workspaces and interior break-out spaces. Rooms are flexible and roll-up garage doors connect some classrooms to adjacent outdoor learning spaces.

This project rotated the school 90 degrees on its site and features three new buildings housing 16 classrooms, an administration building, and multi-purpose room twice the size of the original one. Two existing buildings containing 12 classrooms were remodeled to complement the new construction.

The school remained occupied throughout construction, requiring the project to be broken up into five phases and the students to be housed in temporary classrooms that remained on site for the duration of the project. As buildings were complete, students were moved into the newly constructed classrooms and students from existing classrooms were moved to the temporary classrooms, and so forth.

Rancho Santana School serves the Santana Ranch housing development and provides 21st century learning to approximately 850 TK-8th grade students. Built on a 12 acre site, the new two-story school consists of an administration building, library/media center, thirty-five classrooms, a playground, ball courts, and turf fields. Initially, three classrooms will be used as a warming kitchen and multi-purpose room until a permanent cafeteria is built in a later phase. The site is separated into three tiers. The buildings sit prominently on the first tier, the play courts are on the second, and the sports fields are on the lower tier.

The new 30,560SF, two-story addition to the existing college center brings together services that were previously spread out across campus, making it easier for new and returning students to receive assistance before the start of each semester. The first floor houses Admissions and Records, the Student Access Center, and Counseling and Assessment. The second floor consists of the Transfer Center, Extended Opportunity Program and Services, and the president’s office. The main lobby is designed as a social hub with stadium-style seating and charging stations for students to connect their electronics while they study, hang out, or just relax. The scope also includes modernization to the existing building and site upgrades.

The new 2-story, 25,000SF academic building at the Cosumnes River College Elk Grove Center contains instructional biology, chemistry, and anatomy laboratories as well as much needed student support and interaction spaces.
