Cupolas at the entrances to the classrooms and in the Commons bring natural light into the corridors.

Rattlesnake Elementary School
As part of our ongoing relationships with the architect and Marana Unified School District, Lloyd Construction worked as the Construction Manager at Risk to complete the $10.5 million new Rattlesnake Elementary School.
The buildings are clustered around a courtyard, providing a protected space for students. The building is set well back on the site from the road, giving a buffer from traffic. Exterior circulation paths around the perimeter of the courtyard connect classrooms, administration, media center, and multi-purpose spaces. The administration and multi-purpose buildings are turned to give the courtyard a more informal and less rigid appearance. A ball field adjacent to the school is shared with the Town of Marana.
This school was designed using Twin Peaks Elementary School, also built by Lloyd Construction, as a prototype.
Red Rock K-8 School
Lloyd Construction worked as a Construction Manager at Risk to build this new $12.6 K-8 school in the new master planned community of Red Rock Village just north of Tucson. The design for this 1,050 student school has the flexibility to be built as the new community grows or all at once. Special coordination was required with the community developer for the school site, road and utilities locations, to mention a few.
The new school includes five spacious classrooms per grade with two windows; teacher work room and one “pull out” classroom for each two grades; special education spaces and a computer lab per classroom wing; specialized classrooms for 7th and 8th grades; separate gymnasium with stage and cafeteria; and a full service kitchen designed to serve as many students as possible in a short time period.
