Nashoba Valley Technical High School Modular Expansion Project
About the Project
Nashoba Valley Technical High School modular expansion was made possible by a $3.75 million grant from the state’s Chapter 74 Vocational Instructional Space Facility Expansion Program. This investment allowed NVTHS to build a new modular wing on the eastern side of the campus, creating a modern manufacturing, robotics, and design training facility.
The new addition accommodates four interconnected programs under one roof: Programming & Web Development, Engineering Technology, Robotics, and Advanced Manufacturing. This modular classroom layout encourages collaboration among students and staff, enhancing the learning experience and promoting interdisciplinary skills development.
Construction and Design
The construction and design phase of the NVTHS modular expansion project was marked by efficiency and thoughtful planning. Breaking ground in April, the new wing was completed in just four months—minimizing disruption to school activities and ensuring readiness for the September 2024 school year. The modular building design featured a thin brick system with custom-colored grout to seamlessly blend with the existing structure.
A heated modular connector was built on-site to link the new addition to the main building, facilitating easy access across all programs. Practical considerations were also addressed, with the western elevation featuring a garage door for loading materials and machinery, while other egress points included ADA-accessible ramps. This careful approach resulted in a fully integrated, functional, and attractive modular addition.
Collaboration and Success
The success of the Nashoba Valley Technical High School modular expansion was made possible through strong collaboration between NVTHS and Triumph Modular.
Jeff Scheminger, NVTHS Technical Director, shared:
“Triumph Modular, from start to finish, helped us through. They made it work. We collaborated very well with them. There were a whole lot of things we didn’t know, and they did.”
This project highlights Triumph Modular’s expertise in delivering modular vocational training facilities that support evolving educational needs. The new modular space will help prepare NVTHS students for the demands of modern technical careers.
