Palo Alto USD Hoover Elementary School Campus Replacement

The XL team was awarded the Hoover Elementary School project with Palo Alto Unified School District. Under a Lease-Leaseback contract, this full campus replacement project will utilize TimberQuest™ for the entire campus. The 60,000 s.f. project includes demolition and site clearance of the existing campus, followed by the construction of a new one-story kindergarten classroom building (4,500 s.f.), a one-story library and administration building (7,500 s.f.), a new, two-story main classroom building (37,500 s.f.) and a new multipurpose building (7,000 s.f.). Site improvements include redesign of the drop-off and pick-up areas. Demolition is scheduled to begin in March of 2024, with the campus completed in time for students to start the 2025-26 school year.
