Balfour Beatty has broken ground on David W. Gordon Elementary School in Elk Grove, a 10‑acre, ground‑up campus designed for about 850 TK–6 students in the growing Laguna Ridge community.
The campus will feature prefabricated mass‑timber (CLT) classroom buildings by TimberQuest, along with a two‑story modular classroom building by American Modular Systems, all designed with sustainability, safety and student experience at the core.
This campus is a great example of hybrid construction, combining modular classroom buildings with site-built spaces to create a cohesive, thoughtfully designed environment.
