Years of thinking ahead have paid off for the School District of Palm Beach County — both financially and from a sustainability perspective.
Instead of building two new school additions from scratch, the school district is stacking together previously purchased concrete relocatable classrooms from Royal Concrete Concepts, LLC (RCC) with an industry best 100-year life cycle to create large two-story additions at Crestwood Middle School and Whispering Pines Elementary School.
“No one has ever moved concrete modular classrooms and reconfigured them into a new two-story wing addition,” said John W. Albert III of RCC, explaining just one of the benefits to the district’s decades-long strategy. “We’re dealing with a very resourceful school district,” Albert added.
